Solstice Meet Preliminary Results

Hard to believe but this meet was as close as our 2024 Solstice -- which we lost by 5 points.  This time it looks like we won by 6!  Results are not official yet so we are holding our breath and hoping they don't find out about the propeller Scott attached to his swim suit.

The scores are at the bottom.  First, we want to recognize everyone who swam.  We don't win without every one of these swimmers:  Erica Bailey, Jenny Carswell, Linda Carter, Kempsey Clark, Kylee Diulus, Denise Dombay, Amy Funk, Judy Gearhart, Jason George, Scott Golden, Michelle Grace, Ronald Greger, Patricia Guay-Berry, Dorota Hassett, Anthony Higgins, Steve Jolles, Cheryl Kaiser, Steven Krempasky, Jeanne Lappin, Bryan Main, Corrigan McIlmail, Alexander Ochs, Arlene Proebsting, Bryan Rivera, David Robinson, Stephanie Shneydman, Caitlin Smith, Farol Tomson, Brenda Weis, Stephanie White, Stephen Wright.  THANK YOU and hope you had fun.
