High School Swim Team Update - Week of 1/8/24

Good evening everyone,

We hope that everyone has been enjoying winter break. The teams had a great meet at the GCC league invitational this past Saturday finishing in 3rd place. We enjoyed some excellent races against some fast competition on the way to 65 season best times. As we return to school this week, we enter the second half of the season. Our practices the next few weeks are our last big opportunity to help us on our path to drop time during the post season tournament. Results and top times have been updated on the team website. Our reminders and schedule for the week are included below.



Reminders:
1.) Our senior night ceremony will begin the meet on Friday. Parents of seniors, please report to the pool deck at 6:20 pm.
2.) Seniors, please be sure that you have returned your senior bio sheet to Coach Emily and myself so that we can include you in the program.
3.) Please note that our meet Saturday against the Perry Invitational is divided with girls swimming in the morning and boys swimming in the afternoon/evening. We will run separate buses for each.
4.) We are in need of help timing for our home meet on Friday. If you are able to help us out, please place your name on the linked timer signup sheet. We need a lot of timers to be able to host the meet and really appreciate anyone who can help us out. Timers do get into the meets for free. Thank you to everyone who has helped us with timing already!
5.) The second pasta party will be this week after the regular practice on Thursday. The location will be 5415 Snell Drive, Mentor.
6.) Please be sure that you are getting missed practices made up. A signup sheet for makeup practice is linked here. Please try to sign up 24 hours in advance.
7.) For practice, you will need your suit, towel, goggles, and swim cap (if you prefer one).
