Swim Meet Updates
Dear Team,
Championship season has officially arrived, and our athletes are not easing into it. No, they’re doing everything but taking it easy. They are taking it by force.
Over the past few weeks, our team has been dropping time, racing with intent, and performing at an exceptional level. At STX Championships, several of our athletes stepped up and earned National A time standards, a clear signal that the work is translating when it matters most.
Congratulations to Leanne Hughes, Stella Kang, Christian Schafer and Cynthia Slayton for EARNING their first A cuts!
We’ve bobbed and weaved through the opening stretch of the championship season, and when it was time to race, our dogs brought out the paws. From B Champs, BB Champs, Districts, to Regionals, this team didn’t just show up, they made a statement.
We are cooking, athletes are confident and our team is only getting started. This is the time of year where preparation meets opportunity. Stay locked in. Stay disciplined. Stay hungry. The Momentum is real and right now, it’s wearing our colors.
