| I DID IT |
With the conclusion of the Mako Spring Invitational Championship meet this past weekend, we have one championship meet left, which is where we will have 27 of our Mako age groupers swimming from April 10-13 in Saint Petersburg Florida.
This past weekend our swimmers who swam in the spring championship meet rocked the pool with both the effort that they put in and the results that they posted on the scoreboard. It’s been a long season that started back in September, and the effort you have shown and the progress each of you have made has not gone unnoticed by the coaching staff.
The coaches were really thrilled and excited to see many of you trying some new events and a lot of new distances. You all may not know this but by doing this you keep yourself mentally fresh and at the same time improve your swimming overall. Some advantages of the longer distances are that it allows you to really work on the turns in a racing situation, which will help in your shorter signature events. The resulting opportunities and confidence that you gain are limitless.
Top eight finishers in their events were;
Claire Anderson 25 free 3rd, 25 breast 2nd, 25 fly 5th
Petra Gruendel 25 free 4th, 50 breast 7th
Maddie Carroll 25 free 7th, 25 fly, 8th
Camryn Smith 25 breast 4 th, 25 fly 6 th

Great job by all of you during this championship season!
Most of us are now done with the short course racing for the season, and as we approach the next couple of weeks heading into spring break our workouts will revert back to less training and loaded with more stroke techniques and drills. What you do now as we transition into this stage will be important as you move through the process.
