DCST Starts Summer Season with a Win

DCST Starts Summer Season with a Win

 

                DCST opened its 2009 summer season with an impressive 442 – 267 win over visiting McHenry. As a team, DCST had 99 lifetime best swims on Tuesday (out of a total of 216 swims or 46%).

After each meet, the coaching staff picks two swimmers, one girl and one boy, as the “Big Dogs" of the meet. Big Dogs are not only selected on their performance in the meet, but the coaches also take into consideration the swimmer’s practice attendance, work ethic, team spirit and sportsmanship. For this meet, Bailey Flemming, age 11, and Andrew Tatum, age 7, were selected as Big Dogs of the meet.

DCST had 23 swimmers who had lifetime best performances in all of their individual events. These swimmers were as follows: Tyler Berger, Palmer Bubb, Sadie Burton, Tyler Crown, Marc Dubrick, Bailey Flemming, Sarah Hein, Carter Howell, Tyler Hull, Emily Keiner, Kyra Lindgren, Meagan Maish, Dylan Rasmussen, Elissa Roose, Bradley Ruetten, Jackson Shortridge, Patrik Smith, Libby Swedberg, Andrew Tatum, Ella Vietmeirer, Chloe Wester, Kayla Wester, and Allison Yohanan.

DCST will be competing at UIC this weekend at the Joliet USS Meet. DCST’s next dual meet is on Tuesday, June 16 at Geneva.
