Yearround swimmers had a slight edge due to rigorous and frequent practices during the school year. Summer swimmers jumped in to the pool earlier this summer from lacrosse, softball, baseball, soccer, track, band, and any number of other activities. With only a few weeks of practice, summer swimmers quickly got up to speed.
As Coach Jill pointed out at the pre-meet pep talk/cheer session, Wahoos swimmers have only had two morning practices and a few weeks of afterschool practices to get ready for the 2010 season. Thanks to #Snomageddon and an extended school year, summer swim season got a late start.
