2022 Summer Sectionals Recap

The team did some really nice work this past weekend in Riverside and Santa Clarita.  It was super hot in both destinations and the competition was too!  BCS came away with a 6th place finish overall at Sectionals, not bad for only having 11 kids at the meet.  Best times were achieved, new cuts were made and we were able to put together 4 relays that qualified for Junior Nationals on the Women’s side!
 

 

Ryan Haddad - Ryan wrapped up his stint in CA with a very successful meet, grabbing 5 of 6 best times along the way and chipping away at some of his goals. Well done Maestro.

Kyle Capili - Kyle had a standout meet for sure, crushing some big swims and an amazing triple finish with Jack and Ryan in the 2IM. Another impressive day was his double 100 back straight into his 4IM. He was 5 for 5 on individual events at this meet.

Delaney Herr – Delaney had a challenging meet coming off of a couple meets where she swam well.

Roger Brown

50 Free - 24.9 just off his best, but Roger did a good big brother deed and showed up to keep his brother Fred company for his inaugural sectionals swim. It was fun to have him for a bit this summer. Well done Rog!

James Coyne - James had a couple great swims here, most notably his 200 free, 100 fly and relay leg with the boys. He was dropping all kinds of time along the way. Well done James.

Fred Brown - Fred raced at Sectionals after spending 3 days at JO's. He made the trek to Santa Clarita to race with his older brother Roger in the 50 Free. Fred had snagged a best time in the 50 at JO's with a 25.55 and added a bit at Sectionals. The racing experience at the next level is always worthwhile.
 

  

Have a great weekend! Don't forget to tune into USA Swimming and watch some great racing from Irvine. If you can make it down there, even better!
