Blue News and Swimmer of the Month

Blue Swimmers of the Month: 

Delaney Holm and Declan Tierney!

Delaney has been on fire! At the Pumpkin Patch meet, she recorded a best time in her 100 backstroke, dropping 4 seconds and qualifying for Senior State. She followed that up with another Senior State cut in the 1650 at the Maryanne McKeever Invite. Delaney has been focused on improving underwater, starts, and tempo. Congrats, Delaney!

Declan achieved his first AG State time in the 1000 Free and had an impressive swim in his 1650. At the other 2 invites, he had big drops in his 400 IM and 200 breast. Declan has made major improvements to his stroke in practice and has been very coachable while eager to improve every day. Congrats, Declan!
