Waves flow through Junior Olympics!

From Coach Megan:

The Red, White and Blue groups did amazing at JOs! I could not be more proud of my swimmers and how they swam over the weekend. They did a fabulous job of getting up to race and swimming fast! It was the first JO meet for many of the swimmers and I was impressed by how well all the swimmers handled such a big meet!

Congratulations to Julia Miles on earning a medal by placing 8th in the 8 and under 50 freestyle!
