Coach's Corner

We head off to the Kenyon Last Chance Meet Friday after classes are over. Traditionally this meet is very fast and always a good time. This year we are bringing our biggest group (13!) and the guys are either hoping to improve their B-Cuts, or simply go another personal best. Getting one more chance to swim shaved and tapered, in peak physical condition, seems to be something this team doesn't want to miss out on!

Combining another week of rest with what could be the fastest pool in the country is always the right combination when you are looking for improvement. I'll be sure to update the blog Saturday evening with a recap of how things went. If you are looking for information sooner - click here: Kenyon's Results Page. Below are some picts of Kenyon's new facility... the perfect place for a regular season to come to an end!

Many may be wondering what exactly needs to happen this weekend. Well, here is where we stand. Freshman Adam Petro's 200 Fly is currently ranked 9th in the country. If he can drop about 4 tenths he'll be a shoe in for the national meet (he's actually sitting pretty good right now!). Tony Caldwell is currently 18th in the 100 Back, but he is only 2 tenths out of 10th. If he can also find about 4 tenths, he'll join Petro in the pool next week. Finally, our 200 and 400 Medley Relay are ranked about 10th right now. They need to drop 1 second in the 200 and 2 seconds in the 400 in order to be thinking about an invite... anything less will keep them on the bubble. As a reminder though, we dropped 1.5 seconds in our 200 Free Relay at this meet last year, so this is totally doable!

The training has never been better than this year... All they need to do is find their rhythms and let the pool be good to them! Stay tuned for the good news.
