Great meets these past two weekends.  Congratulations to Sophia, Lauren, Grace, Erin, Maggie, Andrew, Noah, Kaitlynn, Taylor, Jordan, Anthony, Suzanne, Gwen, Caroline, Katrina, Grace, Danny, Maddie, Isabella, Julianna, and Kayla on all dropping time at the Winter Championship Invitational this past weekend.  Results from our recent meets are posted at mentorswimming.com.  We are now moving into the dual meet portion of the season. Our next meet will be this Saturday 12/23 at Euclid against Euclid and Strongsville.  This meet will start at 1:00pm.  We were also able to reschedule our missed meet from earlier in the season for Tue Jan 2nd at Spire at 5:00pm.

Our practice schedule for the week is included below.  Reminder that this week is also exam week at school.  The exam schedule is included here.

Exam Schedule	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday

With exams scarlet/varsity swimmers have their normal study table.  Gray/junior varsity will also receive a study table option this week to prepare for exams.   Be sure we are matching the hard work in the pool to hard work in the classroom and let’s see if we can beat last year’s semester GPAs of 3.4 for the girls and 3.6 for the boys.
