Quick update to Crockett Meet Results If you looked over the meet results and were wondering why there were 8/under Freestyle Relay results, those were obviously not supposed to be there as they did not race. The event was inadvertently not deleted and then some fake times populated the event. Coach Mariska will delete these fake times so that they do not affect the swimmers. Last Battle Update Alright team, it is go time!!!! For those of you who have never been to a big invitational before, they are so...
Hi Team!!! GREAT job against Crockett last night! Benicia Stingrays won so we are now 3-0 against our Twin County Swim League Teams!!!! Quick note for swimmer safety behind the blocks.....Parents, PLEASE do not go behind the blocks. The only folks behind the blocks should be coaches, swimmers, and timers. We know you are all very excited, but at ALL meets, please take all photos and videos from the sides and end of the pool. Congratulations to Claire Smith (14) for getting her County qualifying gold time in freestyle. In...
Hi Team!!! Lapapalooza Great job at Lapapalooza!!! Through the hard work of our swimmers and their generous family and friends, we raised almost $19,000!!!
