WEST Weekly

Dear WEST Swim Fans,
Congratulations to all WEST swimmers that competed this last weekend at Senior Sectionals. We had some outstanding performances including 3 rd place finishes by Nicole Limberg and 4 th place by Jonathan Cook in the 100 Breaststroke. WEST was represented by 11 swimmers at the meet and fielded 2 boy’s relays – an indication of the increased depth of our program over the past year.

Summer Meet Schedule Changes
We’ve added a meet for Qualified Senior Elite swimmers - the Mel Zajac International Meet will be held at University of British Columbia on May 19-22. They haven’t released this year’s meet info yet, but last year’s is available by clicking here and includes Qualifying Time Standards. If your swimmer qualifies and is interested in going, please notify Coach Nick.
 
Due to the timing of Olympic Trials this year, the Montana Firecracker Meet has been moved up one week and will be June 15-19 instead. We realize this will now interfere with school and possibly finals, so we will need to determine if we have enough swimmers to make the trip possible. Please email the office if you would like to attend and we will bill your account a $200 deposit. Note: this meet is only for WEST swimmers ages 11 and over.
 
We aim to have summer schedule available soon. Good luck to all WEST Swimmers competing this weekend at Divisional Champs!

Happy Swimming.
Coach Nick
