Fall Senior 3 Meet Write Up

This fall, the Senior 3 swimmers have been working hard at ACC or with S2 and Blue. Now that we are starting to settle back in after the high school season, it’s been great seeing so many of the swimmers coming to more practices and attending the Candy Cane meet earlier this month. This hard work is paying off and we saw some awesome performances at the meet! Below are some of the great swims from the fall meets: 

Chris Laprath - 100% BT from his official club times including a 2 second dro in the 200 FR

Pranav Nalole - huge drops in the 100 FR, 100 BK, and 200 FR at the Keever Invite

Eden Quintana - 10 sec drop in the 500 FR

Grace Lane - right on her best time in the 100 BK at Candy Cane with an impressive swim

Ryu Cheng - 100% BT at Candy Cane

Tye Becki - 2 sec drop in 100 BR at Candy Cane

Owen Sixkiller - first official meet with Gold Medal Swim Club!

 

Swimmers of the Month

The S3 swimmers of the month are Ryu Cheng and Tye Becki. Both Ryu and Tye have been working very hard in practice and coming to many S2 practices (including the 5am practices!). 

 

At Candy Cane, Ryu had 100% best times including a 7 second drop in his 200 fly. One thing he has been working on in practice is doing a one-up one-down breathing pattern which has really helped him keep his hips up at the end of races. 

 

Tye has been working a lot of breaststroke in practice, especially kicking and pullouts. At Candy Cane, he dropped over 2 seconds in his 100 BR! 

 

Congratulations to Tye and Ryu on your great performances and being great teammates!
