Good evening everyone,
Great meets this weekend! Swimmers combined for 193 best times since our two rounds of time trials three and four weeks ago! Boys jumped to a 2-0 record and Girls 1-1 against a tough Brunswick squad. The biggest accomplishment came Saturday with the boys finishing 2nd and girls 3rd out of an impressive 36 schools at Hilltopper Invitational! A fantastic team effort and momentum that we want to keep going! We have one meet this week with our toughest dual meets of the season; Solon and Shaker. Both teams had multiple state qualifiers last year, and both teams we have defeated in recent seasons! We need a good week of practice and our best effort to help the team this Friday!
Reminders:
1.) A giant thank you goes out to all parents that helped with our home meet this past Friday! It was because of you that it ran flawlessly. Thank you!

Swim Team Update - Week of 8-19-19
Good morning everyone,
I hope that everyone had a fantastic summer vacation. I also wanted to take a moment to welcome you back to the school year! Remember that this year is a new opportunity to try your best! For those of you that achieved all of your goals last year, continue to put in the effort that led you to that success! If last year didn't quite go as you had planned, you get a brand new opportunity this year! Let's continue to make sure that excellence in the classroom is what drives us forward.
We are in need of volunteers for several concessions assignments this fall and our team carwash on Aug 25th. There are two signup sheets linked below. Please consider helping us out as these events are critical to the team being able to provide items that directly support each student-athlete in the program. For example, how many home swim meets we can host, bus snacks, team meal on our furthest away meet, awards night, team t-shirts, etc. By securing volunteers, it keeps all of these excellent items part of the program.
8-25-19 Car Wash Sign-up (We do not have to wash the cars, just get them to stop)
Multiple Dates Fall Concessions Sign-up
Remember to check your schedules. You must be enrolled in and passing five classes, not counting physical education, to be eligible for athletics/extracurriculars with the schools. This rule is a state requirement. Please be sure when speaking with your guidance counselor to tell them you are an athlete. College Credit Plus classes, whether at Lakeland or another college/community college, are valued at how many credit hours the course is assigned. This can also be true of some Career Technical Education course offerings if they meet for multiple periods of the school day. Again, if making schedule changes, please check with your counselor and make sure they know you participate in sports.
We hope to be able to offer some optional fall conditioning/lifting opportunities as school gets underway. Look for a schedule on that shortly.
The last item is that the aquatics director at Lake Health reached out and is need of lifeguards. You can apply on the Lake Health website. You may certainly use me as a reference if applying there.
If you need anything at all or just want to stop by and say hi, I will be in F-105 and F-103 again this year.
Have a great start to the school year and remember to make good choices!

Swim Team Update - Week of 2-4-19
Good evening everyone,
Fantastic work at Champs this past weekend! So proud of the team effort! Cardinal swimmers achieved 45 season best times! 6 swimmers and 3 relays reached the podium with top 8 finishes, this out of 400 swimmers in the meet! Results and practice schedule for the week included below.
Results: Mentor vs Champs
Reminders:
1.) It is critically important to be at practice each day during taper. Our goal is a controlled drop of both yardage and intensity by day. One missed day can dramatically throw off the results. Try to eat healthy and avoid junk food. Try to get as much rest as possible including a good night of sleep. Last year we saw 53 of 56 swims at sectionals be season and/or lifetime bests. Remember that taper works as well as what you put into it!
Schedule:
Mon 2/4 PM – Swim practice at LH Wellness 2:45-5:00pm
Tue 2/5 PM – Swim practice at LH Wellness 2:45-5:00pm

Swim Team Update - Week of 1-28-19
Good evening everyone,
Great way to end the season! Both teams finished with wins over South and Euclid on Saturday! Girls season record ends at 11-4 and boys 10-5! Champs will be held Saturday for swimmers that have already been tapering. Swimmers in Sectionals (Sat Feb 9th) have a full week of practice. Lineups with exact events will be posted during the week. Results from this past week are linked below.
Results: Mentor vs Chardon and Brunswick
Results: Mentor vs South and Euclid
Top Times: Mentor Cardinals 2018-2019
Reminders:
1.) It is critically important to be at practice each day during taper. Our goal is a controlled drop of both yardage and intensity by day. One missed day can dramatically throw off the results. Try to eat healthy and avoid a lot of junk food. Try to get as much rest as possible including a good night of sleep. Last year we saw 53 of 56 swims at sectionals be season and/or lifetime bests. Remember that taper works as well as what you put into it!
2.) This will be the last week of any morning/makeup practices. Nobody should be doing doubles at this point because of the taper.

Great way to end the season! Both teams finished with wins over South and Euclid on Saturday! Girls season record ends at 11-4 and boys 10-5! Champs will be held Saturday for swimmers that have already been tapering. Swimmers in Sectionals (Sat Feb 9th) have a full week of practice. Lineups with exact events will be posted during the week. Results from this past week are linked below.
Results: Mentor vs Chardon and Brunswick
Results: Mentor vs South and Euclid
Top Times: Mentor Cardinals 2018-2019
Reminders:
1.) It is critically important to be at practice each day during taper. Our goal is a controlled drop of both yardage and intensity by day. One missed day can dramatically throw off the results. Try to eat healthy and avoid a lot of junk food. Try to get as much rest as possible including a good night of sleep. Last year we saw 53 of 56 swims at sectionals be season and/or lifetime bests. Remember that taper works as well as what you put into it!
2.) This will be the last week of any morning/makeup practices. Nobody should be doing doubles at this point because of the taper.
3.) We are in need of a few parent volunteers to sell 50/50 tickets at the home basketball game on Saturday night. Please email kathiec@me.com if you would like to help out! Thank you!

Swim Team Update - Week of 1-7-2019
Good evening everyone,
Phenomenal job at our meets this past weekend! We saw 84 season best times set between the meets Friday and Saturday. Girls defeated both Euclid and Wickliffe on Friday! Girls took 3rd/8 and boys 5th/8 at the Greater Cleveland Conference meet on Saturday! We compete in one of the toughest leagues in the state for all sports and swimming especially as each many of the top finishers in each event at the league meet will be swimming in the state meet. Girls, a special shout-out, in that in the latest season rankings you were 17th in championship format (scoring 4 swimmers per event) and 27th in dual meet format (scoring 2 swimmers per event) out of the 310 schools/teams in the state with swimming.
Results: Mentor vs Euclid and Wickliffe
Results: Mentor vs GCC Invitational

Reminders:
1.) Swimmers will be split this week into attending one of two meets. Swimmers attending Strongsville Invitational on Wednesday 1/9, your bus will be 4:45pm and the meet will start at 7:00pm. Anyone in the meet on Wednesday should NOT report to practice, just to the bus at the HS at 4:45pm. The meet is at Strongsville Rec Center, NOT Strongsville HS.
2.) Swimmers attending Perry Invitational on Saturday 1/12 will be in sessions by a girls meet in the late morning and a boys meet in the afternoon. Girls bus will leave at 8:00am and the meet will begin at 11:00am. Boys bus is TBA and boys start time is TBA. I am sorry I cannot give you more information but we simply do not have it until Perry combines the entries and gives a timeline. I would estimate, please understand this is without knowing the exact number of teams and entries, a 2:00ish bus time and a start of maybe 3:00-4:00pm? As soon as I receive information on the timeline I will send an update email. When the girls meet ends, boys warmups will begin 20 minutes after. We will have 2 different busses, one for girls and one for the boys. So girls you will travel out, then return after your meet. Boys you can sleep in, then travel out and return after your meet.
3.) For practice absences, please send us a quick email with date and reason (doc appointment, family emergency, sick, sport, etc) so that we can update attendance.
