Lost Dutchman Invitational
Congrats on a great team win at Lost Dutchman! This is a meet we did not have our top senior swimmers, proving how much power our Age group swimmers hold. For a portion of our group, this meet was one of our ‘last chance’ meets, and we stepped up for some great swims. The other focus of this meet was the prelim/final component and how to maneuver through all those swims, you all did a great job of preparing and recovering for each swim. Some of the biggest challenges we face: are staying warm, napping/resting between sessions, and fueling properly. Dropping time in finals will always be challenging and I want to highlight that every swimmer in AG1 that made at least one event back for finals dropped time.
