HC Results

Well...we lost to a team that we should have beat. We came in a little off and they had a great meet. On the night, they were the better team.

Mentally we need to find out what we need to do to get ready to swim fast regardless of our competition. Emotionally we need to rely on each other more and we need to make sure that we are all ready to go. It is tough to come off a meet like we had last Tuesday with BC...however we have done it well before and we can do it well again. The way that we came together last week and the feeling of team on the pool deck was magical. I didn't get that feeling yesterday. I didn't get the feeling that we were having fun. It didn't look like we were having fun once the meet started. We are a team when things are great and when things are going bad. We are a team when things are magical and when we are flat.

I think that it is easy for us to chant our three P's when things are going well and we are swimming fast. However, I think that times like now are when it is most important to remember our PRIDE, our PERSERVERANCE, and the POSSIBILITIES that lie before us. It stinks to lose a meet like that last night. I am not happy about it and I hope you all are dissapointed too. We are better than how we performed last night. What can we do about it? From this point on we learn from mistakes made and we move on seeking to get better.
