The S2 Swimmers of the Month for March are Grace Lane and Kevin Foley! Grace started off in S3 and came to many of the S2 workouts. In February, she decided to make the jump, up her commitment, and join S2. Since then, she has continued to work hard very hard - making almost all practices and having great focus during workout. At Regionals, Grace dropped in the 50 and 100 FR, 100 BK and 100 BR. We're so excited to have Grace in the group and I know more...

Congratulations to all AG2 swimmers for their performances at Lost Dutchman , Regionals and State! During our final 3 big meets of the season we had strong swims leading swimmers to personal bests, regional and state q times, many team points scored, and high state placing!

March Swimmer of the Month The March Swimmer of the Month is Erica Perez! Erica had a State meet where she didn’t see the results she hoped for, but instead of letting that get her down she brought focus to practice and ended up making technical changes to her stroke to prepare for her next meet. At SWAGR she went best times in her 100 free, 200 back, and played a role in several relays. In her 200 back, she squeezed into finals with a 10th place finish during prelims....

AG State summary: Great work at the State Meet everyone! You all battled through some very tough conditions and you came out victorious. Across the board, it was a tough meet for our individual races, however, when it came to stepping up for the team relays we killed it. I have mentioned this before but the ability to step up the focus level for relays is 100% transferrable to individual races. Highlights: Ryan Foley 200 Fly: Ryan went a best time in November and then did not go faster until...

Senior Three had a small group of swimmers who qualified for the Regional Championships. Cailyn Ross, Eden Quintana, and Ronav Udar all achieved multiple best times throughout the meet and all three were able to return and swim in at least one or more event finals. Being able to race at prelims and return for finals is an important skill to experience and practice as a swimmer. Senior Three coaches are proud of your achievements and efforts this season and cannot wait to watch everyone race long course in April!

Lost Dutchman Meet Summary: There was a lot of good and a lot of not-so-good to come out of Lost Dutchman. We executed race strategy very well and a lot of our details (turns, breakouts, finishes, underwaters) were maintained throughout entire races. The only thing we need to work on is moving past a bad swim and giving ourselves the best chance at a great swim. In my eyes, it comes down to self-talk and how we think of ourselves after a bad race. I also think that some of...
