Coaches Shout Out: 

Home Meet: We want to extend a HUGE thank you to all of the families who volunteered their time and effort at our meet over the weekend! We would not be able to offer these opportunities to our swimmers to race at home without all of you and your efforts do not go unnoticed.

A huge shoutout to some of our swimmers who made new qualifying times and records broken this weekend! Micah Smith and Isabela Josey both obtained their first qualifying times for Provincial Trials and Campbell Kletzel snagged her first qualifying time for Festivals! 

Meet Awards:

• Heart and Hustle: Katherine McMillan was fantastic over the weekend both in the water for her own races and out of the water cheering on her teammates. She was always checking in on which of her teammates were in the water so she could cheer them on and helped hype up her team for the relays like a rockstar! Each time she dove in the water, Katie pushed herself to really race the competition while also following race plans from her coach. Amazing job, Katie! 

• Heart and Hustle: Isobel Tessier swam her first ever swim meet at home and absolutely crushed it! Despite not feeling the best throughout the weekend and working through some big nerves, Isobel pushed herself to stand up on the blocks for each of her races and give it her all. Not only did she push herself but she really brought the “heart” to the pool for both prelims and finals as she stayed to cheer on her teammates loud and proud! Well done, Isobel! 

• Swim of the Meet: Micah Smith had an amazing weekend of racing. A stand-out swim for Micah, noted by all of the coaches on deck, was his 50m butterfly. This swim had some technical difficulties the first time around so, even though he finished the race, he had to stand up again and re-swim it again. When he swam the second time, Micah raced just as hard as he had the first time and did not let the stress of the situation impact his performance. On top of being a huge best time and stellar swim, this race also qualified him for Provincial Trials! Congratulations, Micah! 

Swim of the Meet: Jack Mulligan had a great weekend of races. On the final and toughest day of the meet, when energy was low, Jack dug deep and showed up big. He dropped time in all three finals races from his morning prelims—proving just how much heart he has. He especially crushed his 100 breast, sticking to the race plan and giving it his all. Way to go, Jack!
