January Storm Recap

The Waves sent 28 swimmers to test the waters in Walla Walla.  Our Inland Empire (Senior) Championships will be help at the Whitman College pool on February 24-26th.  They returned with 6 new team records, 7 new Age Group Sectional times, a fist full of first places and over 80 best times.  Every relay place 2nd or higher, while we enjoyed a solid 2nd place as a team.  The only team to beat us brough at least 3 times as many swimmers.  The small group and great swims made for a great weekend of fun.  Here are some of the highlights of the weekend.  (Picture is of Coach Kevin with Ryan Foote and Emma Thompson after they, in back to back races, broke the 200IM records.)
