High School Swim Team Update - Week of 2/13/23

Good afternoon everyone,

Fantastic job at sectionals yesterday! The boys won the sectional championship and the girls were runner-up. Swimmers combined to set an impressive 66 season-best times towards that effort! I am so proud of the hard work everyone put into doing their best this season! It is crazy to think about, but we have seen such tremendous improvement from just 60 days of practice! That says so much about your focus and work ethic when we are in the pool! Full results and top times have been updated on the team website. OHSAA has yet to post the official qualifiers list, but tentative qualifiers, reminders, and our schedule for this week are included below.



Qualifiers:
Marlena Childs - 200 MED R, 200 IM, 100 BK, 200 FR R
Madison Andres - 200 MED R, 200 IM, 100 BR, 400 FR R
Nina Weber - 200 MED R
Molly Chicone - 200 MED R
Juliana Slaninka - 200 FR, 500 FR, 200 FR R, 400 FR R
Sophia Messina - 200 FR, 500 FR
Annie Berrow - 50 FR, 100 FR, 200 FR R, 400 FR R

Dylan Tackett - 50 FR, 100 FR, 200 FR R, 400 FR R
Jackson Hodkey - 100 BK

Reminders:
1.) Please try your hardest to attend practice each day on taper. We want to conserve energy as we drop the yardage and intensity of our final practices to set us up for the best possible time drops at our respective championship meets. This is a scheduled controlled drop with each day having a critical impact.
2.) Please be sure to practice the strategies for a good taper we have been talking about at practice. We want to be fully rested and ready to perform our fastest.
- Good night's sleep
- Good diet (especially pasta and vegetables Thursday/Friday)
- Avoid excessive hours staring at device screens
- Avoid activities that will take a lot of energy or that risk injury (lifting, hot tubs, skiing, etc.)
3.) Relay spots have been updated based on Saturday's sectional meet races. Our relay performances have been incredible! I absolutely 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! Please note that spots are not final and are dependent on performance.

Schedule:
Mon 2/13 - Swim practice at UH Wellness 2:45-5:00 pm
Mon 2/13 - Optional/make-up swim practice at UH Wellness 7:00-8:45 pm
Tue 2/14 - Swim practice at UH Wellness 2:45-5:00 pm

High School Swim Team Update - Week of 2/6/23

Good morning everyone,

Great job at Canton Champs this past weekend! The postseason will continue Saturday with Sectionals. Results and top times have been updated on the team website.  Our reminders and schedule for the week are included below.

Reminders:
1.) It is important to be at practice each day as we taper. We will drop yardage and intensity over our remaining practices to get the best performance for our championship meets. Swimmers, please remember that you have two practice options to meet daily attendance.
2.) We will send ticket information for Sectionals as soon as we receive it. This will likely be on Wednesday when we receive final warmup times and the psych sheet.
3.) The city is looking for lifeguards this summer. Please see the attached flyer and use the contact information to express interest. It sounds like they will run a training class for anyone that needs the certification as part of the hiring process.
