West Coast Open recap

The West Open Swim meet was a challenging swim meet to gators, but they were able to perform adequately and keep gators times dropping. During three long days around 600 swimmers were present at Watermania for the West Coast Open, which hosted teams from Vancouver area and Washington (US). 

This meet was a Long course meet, and for some of the swimmers it was the first time in the season they were able to experiment and adapt to the scenario of a 50 m pool. Regardless the first couple of races raised on time, the majority of Gators Athletes were able to adapt quickly and keep their times close to SC times.
