10-U Pace Clock Quiz The attached pace clock quiz is for the Spring/Summer 10-under Achievement Certificates. Print it out, fill it in, and turn it in to Coach Greig. It it is (generally ) correct you will get a sticker to fill in your certificate. Your parents can help you with it or you can ask your coaches questions after practice if you need to. AG White swimmers only have to fill in questions 1-8 but they all need to be fairly accurate. We still do not have anyone that...

I saw my majestic moose!!!!! Kyra had a double swim off in 50 free winning in the end. Izzy learned to whistle. We found a Alaska license plate. We meet Jake's prom date. Izzy took a picture with PAC senior wearing lots of mighty ducks hockey apparel. We drove to Canada and saw Niagara Falls. Izzy's bio was the only one that was not swimming related..."izzy had her first real buffalo wings. Greg made new friends. Izzy and Kyra made new friends. Finally realized that I was right for once...Kyra...
It started off normally enough, with Izzy making it back in the 200 fly (16th)... Then things got weird... Both girls swam the 50 free, Izzy was 24.72 and Kyra was 24.71. Izzy was 2nd alternate, but Kyra tied another gal for the 24th and final spot in finals... So they were to do a swim off after the girls 500s. Kyra swam the 100 back and made it back to finals (14th), and then started to prepare for her swim off... For those of you not familiar with swim...
Kyra and Izzy both swam tonight... Izzy dropped a second in the 200 fly, and Kyra dropped in both the 50 free and 100 back from prelims, finishing 13th overall in the back. Here is a picture of the girls and me at the Anchor Bar, where Buffalo Wings were invented. We bumped into Jake's prom date!
