A Balmy Winter Frost Meet
True to last year's budding tradition; the weather during our Winter Frost Meet proved to be unseasonably warm. It was with great excitement that we watched swimmers return from the holiday break with determination and confidence as we start the countdown towards championship season. Their achievements continue to add up:
Eighty-three of our athletes laid down 253 Best Times, 4 SR METS cuts, 62 Zone Qualifying swims, 71 JO performances, and 267 Silver Championship qualifications, for a total of 404 Championship swims. Nice team effort!
A big Thank You! to our dedicated parents for volunteering their time and expertise to ensure that we could run our meet smoothly and efficiently.
Thirty-six(!) new Team Records were set this weekend, Way to Go Patriots!!
