Reminders:
1.) It is important to be at practice each day as we taper. We will drop practice yardage and intensity over our remaining practices to set ourselves up for the best performance at our championship meets.
2.) Please make sure that we are making good decisions on taper to set ourselves up for that success. This includes eating as clean/healthy as we can, making sure we are getting enough rest, avoiding activities that might be strenuous or an injury risk.
3.) We will be updating relays at practice this week based on the addition of Saturday's sectional times. Our relay performances have been incredible so far! I wish we could run multiple because I know we have so many swimmers ready to contribute great performances! We make any adjustments with the goal to position the relays to drop even more time and continue to advance. Keep working hard as a group to make our relays the fastest they can be; it takes the collective effort of every team member to push them forward!
4.) For practice, please bring your suit, towel, goggles, cap (if you prefer one), and water bottle (if you prefer one).

Schedule:
Mon 2/16 - Swim practice at UH Wellness 2:45-5:00 pm
Tue 2/17 - Swim practice at UH Wellness 2:45-5:00 pm
Wed 2/18 - Swim practice at UH Wellness 2:45-5:00 pm
