At the end of the Breaststroke events, the score was Westminster Riding Club 227, West Howard 205. Our opponent's lead seemed insurmountable. Wahoo relay teams moved the score in the right direction with a rebound of 39 points. The meet ended in a tie score of 244 to 244.--
Today's meet was about more than swimming races. It was Wahoos Senior Day. Seven senior swimmers were honored at the beginning of their last individual event of the meet. All the swimmers are on their way to college in the fall. Congratulations, senior swimmers!
Announcer Rick read out speeches about each swimmer written by their parents. As well as swimming, our senior swimmers have a wide variety of interests, including business, drama, cross country, dance, basketball, theater, adventure games, reading, and a myriad of other activities. Wahoos have a well-rounded and talented group of senior swimmers.
Seniors Moms/Dads wore decorated photo rosettes (created by Debbie, mom to swimmers Mark and Matthew). While standing on the diving block, swimmers were presented with a colorful bouquet of flowers including sunflowers from grounds of the pool (assembled by Debbie, as well). Girl swimmers wore tiaras and pink feather boas, while the guy swimmers wore gold top hats and sunglasses (chosen by swimmer Cassie).
