Varsity Boys Updates

Our season continues to roll along. Our meet tomorrow is against Byron Center and we are looking forward to swimming fast. On deck ready to roll at 5:15.

Please be taking care of yourselves. Eat well, sleep plenty, and make wise choices away from the pool. If you feel the need, take a day and sleep to get over whatever is bugging you.

We are four weeks out from the start of taper for conference swimmers and six weeks out for state swimmers. It will be here before you know it.

We are, and will be doing more race pace efforts in practice over the next couple of weeks. We need to be going after it all out when it is prescribed in the workout. If you do not you will not get near the benefit that you are supposed to. Give the best of yourself everyday in practice.

MISCA Meet info went home today with those swimmers/divers that are qualified. If you don't see it from your athlete soon, ask them for it.

State hotel information is available by contacting Vicki DeJonge at dvdejonge @ verizon.net.

I have extra parent t-shirts available for sale. They are $15/shirt and I have two x-larges left and four larges left.

Our parent night will be on February 17 when we swim against Zeeland. Each swimmer and diver went home with an info sheet from Mr. Haggerty. If you haven't seen that sheet yet, ask your swimmer or diver for that info.

It would be easy to be satisfied with where we are right now. Please remember that the enemy of being great is being good. Do you want to be a part of something good, or something GREAT!!!!

Have a great night and get ready to go fast tomorrow and beyond!!!
