Hi all! Here are some notes for this week….
1) Lost Dutchman Meet Recap
• I was pleased with the swims over this past weekend. I think most swimmers are where they need to be right now. Some factors that are influencing times are…sickness, missing practices, extremely tired from the workload in practice and how much the swimmers put into the practices they are at. We have one month until States. I will begin to separate the group into swimmers that need more rest and those that don’t. My goal is to have all the swimmers experience a fast end of season meet.
• Our age group swimmers (14 and under) won the meet! Congratulations. The boys were 1st and the girls were 5th. The scores combined gave us a 200+ point victory. We need to carry this momentum into the State Meet and make sure we come out on top.
• Congratulations to our two high point award winners…Chris Webb (tied for first) and Celina Li (won all seven events).
• New Yard Sectional Time standards were achieved by Chris Webb (200 Fly and 500 Free) and Celina Li (200 Breast).
• New Yard Far Western Time Standards were achieved by Sally Wang (200 Back) and Chris Webb (200 Back).
2) Practice Schedule for the rest of this week…
• Tuesday 3:30 – 5:30
• Wednesday 5:30 – 7:00am and 3:30 – 6:00 (dryland 5:15 – 6:00)
• Thursday 3:30 – 4:00 Run and 4:00 – 6:00 Swim
• Friday 5:30 – 7:00am and 3:30 – 5:30
• Saturday 7:15 – 8:00 dryland and 8:00 – 10:00 swim
• I did tell all the swimmers that were at Lost Dutchman that they could take off either Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning….but not both.
3) This is the last big push until the end of short course season. Swimmers need to be making all practices to get the most out of their season.
That is all for right now.
Thanks!
Coach Kevin
Hi all! Here are some notes for this week…
1) Lost Dutchman Meet is this weekend. I put updated meet entries and a meet information sheet in the file folders today. I made some changes due to swimmers being sick. Please check the updated events. The sheet will be dated 2/11/2008.
2) There is morning practice this week on Wednesday only…no Friday. Friday practice for those not swimming in Lost Dutchman will be 3:30-4:30pm.
3) There is no practice on Saturday or Monday due to the meet.
4) Information sheets will be passed out today about Far Westerns in April. If people are interested in attending, we need the sheets back ASAP. If anyone in Silver is planning on attending Far westerns, you will not be allowed to take a Spring Break prior to the meet. We will have off Easter Weekend, but that is it. It makes no sense to take a week off for vacation and then try to swim at your highest level. Anyone taking a break prior to the meet (except Easter Weekend) will be pulled from the meet.
5) I will begin talking to the swimmers about end of season meets this week to see what we are gearing for.
That is all for right now.
Thanks!
Coach Kevin
Hi all! Here are some notes for this week…
1) Attached is the practice schedule for this week and next. I will also put these in the file folders tomorrow.
2) Thank you to Mary Carbajal for filling in for me on the hike! Also, thank you to the Herriot family for having the brunch at their place!
3) Lost Dutchman Meet is next weekend. Hopefully we will have decent weather for that meet!
4) I will start talking to the swimmers about end of season meets. My goal is to make Senior and Age Group State Champs a big deal this year for the Silver group. I will take all the swimmers up to Manresa for a weekend if they all go at least one best time ever at the State Meet in March. This should help motivate and really create a team atmosphere at the meet. More end of season info will be out soon…including a Silver end of season dinner.
That is all for right now.
Thanks!
Kevin
