Gators and Family,

The meet this weekend is against our rivals Lakewood at GMSC, and we want you there. If you want to swim this Saturday you need to sign up with your coach before the end of practice on Thursday. We will be doing electronic entries so you do not need to fill out cards if you sign up on by Thursday.

Also the pentathlon is Sunday you have to have a B time in four of these events by Saturday. 100fr, 100fly, 100bk, 100br, 200IM, your last chance to qualify is this Saturday so swim the events you need to.

Gators,

The past weekend was amazing. At the invite on Friday and Saturday our swimmers swam really well. Almost every swimmer dropped time in at least one event. Inez won the 50 fly which is awesome considering the competition that was there.

On Sunday at the C/D meet we again had some great swims.

I want to thank everyone for coming to the meets I know they were all really long. We will have night practice for upper division tonight if you feel like stretching out a bit.

Thanks
Rich

Practice Tomorrow (6/20) and Monday

Upper divisions practice is shortened tomorrow because of the Ken Caryl Invite. Practice will begin at 7:15 and end at 8:00. This will be a starts and turns practice in preparation of the meet that evening.

Because this weekend has two swim meets we will not be having practice on Monday.

If there are any questions or concerns, I'm always around.

Meet with the Rivals

Hey Gator Swimmers-

I have a few reminders for the meet this Saturday. We will be swimming at the Applewood Athletic Club located at 13330 W. 20th Ave.

The meet will start at 7 am, but the Gators are expected to be ready to get in the pool (i.e. swim suits, goggles, and caps on) at 6:10 am.

Parking is a little tricky. For those of you who have been to the pool before, you know what I'm talking about. The parking lot is very small and you will most likely have to park on the street. The best place to park, in order to avoid a towing fee, is under the I-70 overpass. If there is no parking under the overpass and you have to park on the street, make sure there are no illegal parking signs posted.

The weather looks great for the weekend and I'm hoping we won't have any wind problems at this meet! The wind was not very much fun last week.

Make sure you eat a healthy meal the night before the meet and the morning of the meet so you can use all your energy to swim fast. Most importantly make sure you hydrate like never before. The sun zaps out your energy and a way too stay energized is by drinking lots of healthy fluids.

If you have any questions about the meet or need directions, don't hesitate to call or come visit me at the pool because I'm there a lot!
