Stormy Weather

After a late start to our most recent swim meet (and a number of canceled practices) due to thunderstorms, we had another great, albeit very wet, meet! Spotswood hosted Westover and, despite the rain, came out strong. A few meet shout-outs include:

• Maggie Kistler swam a very swift 25y Fly, placing 1st!

• Avery Gogia dropped over 4 seconds on her 25y Backstroke

• Mac Davis, placed 1st on all of his individual events

Our Golden Dolphin of this week's meet was Frankie!

Frankie has been working so hard this summer. This past week, she placed 1st in the 50-Free and dropped nearly 2 seconds on her IM. Frankie is a joy to have on the team. Congratulations, Frankie!

Today at Fun Friday practice, we had a great time with relay races. Thank you to the Graves family for providing bagels! We also celebrated our swimmers of the week, Fielding & Clar!

Fielding always comes to practice with a smile on his face. He is helpful and caring to his teammates and a great leader. This past week, he placed 2nd in the 50 Fly and 3rd in a very competitive 50 Free.

Clar comes to practice each week, her attendance is wonderful! Plus all the hard work has really paid off. Clar successfully competed this past week in her first 100IM, even though she really didn't want to swim it! Clar is amazing with the little swimmers and has a very sweet heart!

Looking ahead to our next meet, plan to be at Ashby on Tuesday (please remember to sign your swimmers in/out). The Davis family will be out of town and will miss you! Please direct any questions to coaches or Hilary. Have a great weekend!
