It was an exciting end to a fun season. Ever member of the team swam life time personal bests. We were so fortunate to coach a group of guys who supported each other, set high goals, and really worked to accomplish them. I'd like to add too, this year's team had a first semester team GPA of 3.71. They're a motivated group in the classroom and the pool!
