What a great meet at Regionals!
Fantastic job at Regionals for all of our swimmers. We picked up 2 Zone cuts, 32 additional individual State cuts, won 21 individual events and 4 relays, and broke 2 Team records. Not too bad for a 3 day meet! Since all groups were represented at this meet I thought you would enjoy reading the recaps by all the coaches.
Waves and Ripples
The results are in from the regional meet and the kids all did an amazing job! Congratulation to all the swimmers! We are so proud of you all! We loved watching the improvement and progress of each and every one of you this whole season, and we are excited for the spring and fall! We know there will be many kids with state cuts next year.
Our swimmer of the meet in the ripples group is: Claire Poll
Claire had a wonderful meet! She improved her 50 free by 2+ seconds, and swam the 100 free and 100 breast for the first time. Her strokes looked beautiful and she's ready to move up to the waves group. Great job Claire!!!!!!!!!

Willow had a wonderful meet! She improved her 50 back by 6+ seconds, 100 IM by 5+ seconds, 100 free and 50 free by 1+ seconds, and swam the 200 IM and 100 breast for the first time.
Sophia had an outstanding meet as well! She dropped 5 seconds in the 100 free, 4+ seconds in the 100 IM, almost 2 seconds in the 50 breast, had improvements in the 50 fly & 50 free and swam the 100 back, 100 breast and 200 IM for the first time.

What an amazing showing from the Tsunami group! All of your hard work and dedication paid off at the Regional Meet. We had 126 swims and 86 personal best - 68.3%! I saw improvement in our strokes and turns which we have been working on at practice. Many of you tried new events and even swam for the first time in a new age group.
While most of you will be enjoying a few weeks off, a few of our swimmers will be swimming at the State Meet and at the Barbara Kay Mini Meet - WISH THEM LUCK!
See you all in a few weeks! Coach Colleen
