Hello Swimmers!
First
of all – a HUGE
congratulations to our FOUR East Sterling Scholars!!! Mind blowing! It
must be
some kind of a record! Ally Hopson,
Jackson Keller, Nick Olsen, and Eleanor Wettstein. Good luck as you
move on to the state-wide competition! We are SO proud of you!
Nice job at the meets this
week. At the Tuesday meet, Girls got 3rd,
and the Boys won!! YAY!
At the Park City Invite, we
had a slew of best times. Everyone
really stepped up for the bigger invitational type meet. Of 10 teams, the girls got 5th
and the boys got 6th.
Results can be found on the blog:

Swimmers of the meet:
I haven’t announced the
Park City swimmers yet, so that will stay a secret, but at the Tuesday meet our
swimmers of the meet were:
- Lindsay Lloyd – Lindsay amazed everyone there with her singing of the national anthem. What guts to get up there in a swim suit and sing like that!! Beautiful.
- Rob Colgan – Rob dropped time in both of his events, .26 seconds in his 50, and a whopping 23.3 second drop in his 500!
Congratulations!
