High School Swim Team Update - Week of 1/27/25

Good afternoon everyone,

Both teams took home wins against Perry on Monday! Swimmers combined for 35 season-best times in the lone meet of the week. Due to the cold and chemical cancelations, we are looking to host a makeup meet this Friday 1/31 at the UH Wellness Center to get some key times before the post-season. Results and top times have been updated on the team website. Our reminders and schedule for the week are included below. I am happy to help if you have any questions!


Reminders:
1.) I have reached out to several teams in hopes of getting a make-up meet on Friday 1/31 starting at either 5:00 PM or 5:30 PM at the UH Wellness Center. We are looking for some key times before the post-season tournament lineups are due.
2.) If we are able to secure a team, we will be in need of help timing for what would be our final dual meet of the season. 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.
3.) Saturday's meet at Beachwood will be for swimmers that we cannot enter into Sectionals due to entry limits. If we are unable to secure a home meet Friday, we may look to expand this. We will post a lineup at practice as soon as we have this information.
4.) We are doing a swim team fundraiser this year for the Superbowl Feb 9th. Squares are 10$ each. Payouts are 1/8th of total (Q1 - 125$, Half - 125$, Q3 - 125$, Final - 125$ if full board). Any open/unsold squares that hit will roll over to the next quarter, half, final. Numbers will be randomly drawn at practice by the swimmers. To purchase a square, please complete the Google Form linked here. Payment can be made by sending cash with swimmer, given to a coach, or through Venmo @colinkelly35 (419-356-4064). The Squares Board can be found here.
5.) Please be sure that you are getting any missed practices caught up. A signup sheet for makeup practices is linked here. Please try to sign up 24 hours in advance.

6.) For practice, please bring your suit, towel, goggles, cap (if you prefer one), and water bottle (if you prefer one).
