Senior Silver and Gold Update October 28th - November 3rd

Tripp Montgomery

Hello Senior Silver and Gold Swimmers and Parents,

Here are some updates / reminders for the week of October 28th in no particular order.

1.  Congratulations to Team Black for your well deserved win at the BBW Meet this past weekend.  

  • The swimming was impressive by all teams and the turn out was good.  
  • We as a staff are able to really narrow down specifics that need to be worked on for our swimmers as a result of a meet like this.   
    • Dissecting the many DQ's and addressing them while celebrating all of the race learning experiences only make us better.  Details!
  • We want a bigger turn out next year and MORE TEAM SPIRIT going forward.   
    • Memories are being made at this meet.  
    • The more positive energy created, the faster we can swim.  
  • Thank you TMEC Board of Directors, all of our volunteer parents, coaches and officials for your efforts to help put on a unique event for TMEC, ultimately setting TMEC apart.
  • Thank You!
