LC Memorial Swim Meet

The end of school brings the next long course swim meet in Cedar City.   The decision we had to make was what should we wear??  Flip Flops or Jackets??  We brought both just to be safe.  The meet officials decided to start earlier and hopefully avoid going late into the night to finish the Friday session.  That means to Ryder we have to be even earlier so as not to miss anything.

Welcome Back!!!
All is quiet for a minute or two longer.

That minute is over
and all is churning.

The whistle blows
and
it's time to swim!!!

for the 400 Freestyle

It was a long session being an official.  Not many breaks or even snacks.  We were kept busy trying to watch for clean swims.   The biggest problem tonight was the backstroke and staying on their backs.  Ryder did awesome by shaving time off of each event.  If he keeps this up him may just go to State.

#2 Mixed Open 200 Freestyle 1st Place in Heat, 88th overall, 3.12.67 official time

#4 Mixed Open 200 IM 2nd Place in Heat, 77th overall, 3.41.28 official time

#8 Mixed Open 400 Freestyle, 4th Place in Heat, 64th overall, 6.52.74 official time

It was a great night watching Ryder as he achieve the goals he is working on each day at practice.  It also amazes me how much he has learned from his coaches in just a few short weeks.
