Last swim meet of the session!

Hi everyone! Well, we had our last swim meet of the session on Friday 3/5. It was

suppose to be a home meet but it got changed at the last minute. We were

suppose to swim against the Boys & Girls Club, but they lost all of their funding.

So we ended up at Riverside High school. Lets just say, we were not welcomed with

open arms. They treated our kids poorly. Our kids barely got to swim. When they did,

Riverside acted like it was such a hassle. Our coaches were pretty angry. They

tried to talk to them about all of this, but it fell on deaf ears.

It was a nightmare!!

Nicolas did swim 2 heats. He swam the Backstroke and the IM. Here is an

example of how Riversides' attitude was. There were 7 kids competing in the

Backstroke. Instead of splitting up the kids, they made Nicolas swim alone.

Needless to say, it was the worst time he ever had on his Backstroke. It's

hard to go fast when you are the only one in the pool. We are happy that night is over.

So, here are his times...

IM, 100 yards. 2.43! He took 4th place.

Backstroke, 25 yards. 32.03! He took 5th place.

This past Friday was the last night of practice so the coaches let the kids have some fun.

As the pictures above show, they did have alot fun. The kids managed to throw 3

coaches in the water. This coming Friday is the pizza and awards party. We are

looking forward to that. This past Saturday was the big swim conference. So, the

awards and times from that will be given then.

Well, that's all for now. We hope everyone is doing good. Lots of love to all of you.
