10/13/24 Coach's Letter

James Young

Dear Swimmers and Families,

I hope everyone enjoys their holiday on Monday. I wanted to take a moment to recap our recent meet at Asphalt Green. We were fortunate to compete in an outstanding facility against some strong competition. I'm thrilled to announce that five of our swimmers achieved 14 NYS YMCA Qualifying Times (pending official results confirmation), with several others coming incredibly close. This meet showcased our team's talent and determination, and I’m proud of everyone’s effort.

Looking ahead, we will be heading to Kips Bay next weekend for our first MSL Meet on October 19th. While seating will be available, they are in need of volunteers to help out. Volunteering not only provides a front-row seat to cheer on your swimmers, but it is also crucial for the smooth running of our meets. I encourage everyone to consider lending a hand! As I don't have a LINK, please email me at [email protected] with the subject: MSL #1 Volunteer.

We also would like to thank Coach Megan and Coach Tawanda for their tireless help in supporting our swimmers this weekend through all three sessions at Ashphalt Green. 

In recognition of our teams efforts, our Age Group and Senior Teams will have a break from practice on Monday. Please note that the Tech Team will still meet at the usual time.
