It's hard to believe that it has been 4 weeks since the last meet. The holidays are over and the kids are back in the water. They have been working really hard and hope to see how much they have improved. This year it's going to be a little different with 6 teams competing instead of the usual 2. The teams are from California, Nevada, Colorado, Idaho, and Utah. Teams are looking for open meets to allow their kids the opportunity to compete. We welcomed them with open arms.
Peaceful!!

I'm enjoying the quiet.
It doesn't last very long.
Warm Ups
Synced with Solmun
It was a great meet full of energy and excitement. Kids screaming and cheering on their team mates. There were a few minor technology glitches with the computers, touch pads, and score board. The delays made for a longer meet. However, it didn't phase the kids. They kept on swimming.

It's pretty crazy looking at his times and then listening to the conversations about how to improve each event. The kids dissect their turns, strokes, and streamlines and give ideas on how to improve. These kids are amazing. I can't even make it across the pool without dying.
There is once last meet of the Short Course Season in a couple of weeks. After that its JO / State Championships if they hold them this year. They are excited!!!
