It was a great finish to the short course season. We had best times from everyone in the group. Our 11-12 boys of Matt, Kevin and Ryan represented us very well with many podium swims. Everyone of them is inching closer and closer to the 13 and under Age Group National Standard in many events. Kevin placed top 3 in the 800 free, 50-200 Back as well as 400 IM. Matt was top three in the 50-100-200 Breast and 1500 Free. Ryan was third in the 200 Fly. All three boys made second swims in every event they raced over the weekend and made consistent improvements throughout the weekend.
Also at the meet on the weekend were Josie and Sarah in the 11-12 girls, Robyn and Jasmin in the 13-14 girls and Brendan, Liam and Connor in the 13-14 Boys. Josie saw small drops in the events that she swam at B's to qualify to get to the meet. Sarah saw best times in the 100, 1500 Free and 200 Back. Robyn made big drops in the 200 Back and 400 IM as well as a best time in the 800 Free. Jasmin had a great 400 IM, taking the 100 Fly out in a best time by almost 10 seconds to break the 120 mark with a 117! Exciting for future butterfly events! Liam saw best times in the 800 Free, 400 IM, and 50 Fly. Connor swam in his last meet of the season and saw a huge best time in the 200 fly as well as a best time in the 100 Breast, and 100 Fly! Brendan had best times in all but one of his swims on the weekend and is showing better splitting abilities in all of his races.
Way to go Senior Development!
I saw huge improvements from everyone in the group and look forward to the upcoming long course season.
