New Castle

New Castle has let me know that they have a full meet.  They already have 350 kids signed up and are over what they originally planned.  They are concerned with adding anymore volume to the meet.

GYST

Again, sorry for the short notice.  Greensburg entries are due by Friday.  I don’t need money, we can collect later; but I do need an entry form if you want to swim.  We handed them out at practice, there hard copies at the pool and it is now posted here under FORMS.

First Meet

The first meet of the Summer season was on Saturday and I was IMPRESSED.  For only being in the water about 2 weeks, everyone looked great.  Thanks to volunteers and timers, your time was appreciated.  The results will be posted on the MEET SCHEDULE tab next to each event.  Nice job everyone, keep it up!

Districts – Day 2 (pm)

Wow!  What a session!  14 swims and 13 personal best times accompanied by all 7 swimmers qualifying for State in at least one individual event.  The girls medley relay dropped 5 seconds (2:06.88) and all swam person best splits as they made their way to a 5th place finish. Taylor Flaugh and Alex Gehringer both dropped 4 seconds in their 200s.  Alex in the IM (2:41.42) and Taylor in the freestyle (2:15.04).  Zeb Fowler shedded over a second  in his 50 freestyle to swim a 26.59 and finished 4th.  With very impressive back to back events, Madison Clapper qualified in both the 50 fly (31.79) and the 100 freestyle (1:02.44).  Taylor will join her in the 100 as she finished 8th with a 100.60.  Zeb had our highest place finish in his 100 freestyle, with his 1:01.11 resulting in second place.  Jessie Nagle will move on in the 50 backstroke with a time of 33.07 that earned her an 8th place finish.  With a 36.71, Jordan Wiser will be swimming at State in the 50 breaststroke.  She also had a personal best in her 50 freestyle as she swam a 28.91.  Both Ben McConnell and Alex Gheringer qualified in the 50 breaststroke.  Alex dropped 1.5 seconds (36.26) and Ben took off almost 2 (37.22).  They finished 7th and 9th.  I was VERY pleased, impressed and proud of our performance at districts.  As a whole, our team really showed how good we can be.  These positive results need to follow us into State next weekend along with the energy and desire that everyone swam with.  Great Job!
