Times Fall at Festival!

We had a fantastic showing at the 3-day JAC Fall Festival this past weekend! Our 20 attending swimmers faced off against athletes from 10 other clubs. Despite some stiff competition, they rose to the occasion earning top places, a bunch of Personal Bests, and more.

Our swimmers' rates of improvement was a real highlight; the percentage/amount was staggering! It exceeds the national rate of improvement averages, far exceeding those in our LSC (NJ Swimming). What a great validation of our training program and of our swimmers and coaches hard work! Of our 71 splashes, 38 were Personal Bests. Combined with first-time swims, over 63% of our swims were new marks, with some even exceeding 10 seconds of improvement like Salome Calderon’s 50 Free (-16.89); Abby Czinkota’s 200 Free (-22.46); Brooklynne Davis’ 100 Back (-21.29); Julia Dutzi’s 50 Breast (-10.16);Christopher Jaromski’s 200 IM (-23.75); Briella Selby’s 100 Free (-15.14); and Zoey Thaller’s 100 IM (-11.36); just to name a few.

We also had a bunch of top places, including Ty Hollar’s 1000 Free (2nd Place) and 500 Free (3rd Place). Nice!

Great job everyone! Keep putting the work in and watch those times keep dropping!

Next up is NDAC Kevin Storrs’ Winter Festival in Montgomery, NY!
