What an incredible meet!
What can you say about a team that breaks 14 school records, wins four events, has a couple dozen all-conference swims, has 7 national B cuts, and makes about 40 new entries on our All-Time Top 15 list? It was simply the best conference meet we've had since the early 90s.
We've tapered beautifully over the years and always swum well at the conference meet, but this year, the team improved so much over the course of the year, that we were starting way ahead of most seasons.
I'll follow up on this theme in a day or so (it's almost 1:00 AM, and we are celebrating the 75th Anniversary of swimming and diving at St. Thomas with an alumni meet and banquet tomorrow). So I'm going to get some sleep, and enjoy tomorrow right down to my bones. Then, some sleep, and we'll get Rebecca Ney, Jena Root, and TJ Hardy ready for nationals.
I'll keep you all posted.
