They held their own. They swam through across the board. They'll be ready to swim in a couple of weeks (at sectionals).
champion definitely ecstatic experience finals good kids seventh several state walking
Seventh place is definitely an honor, and I think that right now we had a first-time state champion in Chris, and we had several kids in the finals ... not just the consolations. We're walking out of here with a lot of good experience from this year. But I am ecstatic about how we did as a team.
guys last listened next perfect score tried year
Last (Friday) night, I thought we could score 109 points, but we'd have to have a perfect meet. These guys have listened to me all year and done everything I've asked. For some of our guys, it wasn't what we wanted, but they tried hard. It just bodes well for next year.
midst next pool wait year
I don't want to say wait 'til next year because we're still in the midst of this year, but I've got everyone back. No one else can say that in this pool (today).
asked exceeded meet
The meet wasn't about the varsity guys. It was more about the JV guys, and they exceeded everything I asked them to do. I thought they were phenomenal.
