This Week and Next
The bus is leaving today at 4:35 pm. Hopefully the weather holds out and we can get the meet in tonight. If it doesn't happen tonight we will reschedule the meet for either this Thursday or next Thursday. If the meet does not happen tonight we hope to have practice from 3-5:30.
For tomorrow, I will be here in the morning for morning practice if you are comfortable driving in. Normal practice after school. If school happens to be cancelled, we will plan on a 12:30-3:00 pm practice if we can. I will post here if we are unable to practice by 12:00 pm.
Below is the list of swimmers that will be heading to the MISCA Meet on Saturday:
Joey DeGood, Stephen Durham, Austin Fathman, Dylan Harris, John Anthony LaPorta, Zach Lepird, Brad Melpolder, and Andrew Smit. We will be leaving at 7:45 am. Make sure you eat a good breakfast before we leave and bring snacks and drinks along for the day. We will stop for something to eat on the way home so you will need some money (nothing fancy, $10 should do). MISCA T-shirts will be on sale for $12 at the meet. We should return around 7:00 pm.
Next week Tuesday night at our home meet against Holland Christian we will be having our Parent Night. Each swimmer and diver will come home with a note today with two free passes for the meet. We will be starting the Parent Night at 6:25 pm. Parents need to be lined up down the hall on the west end of the pool in alphabetical order by school year of their swimmer or diver by 6:20 pm.
Our conference meet is two weeks from this Friday and Saturday and our state meet is four weeks from this Friday and Saturday. Please stay diligent taking care of yourself outside of the pool. Those that do not have a state cut yet will start their taper on Monday. Those with a state cut will start their taper the Monday after the conference meet. It is critically important to make sure that you are getting enough sleep and eating appropriately during this time period.
Be sure to check a couple of posts down for state hotel info.
It's going to be a fun end of the season!

Great Job!!!
The B Meet went very well on Saturday. Our swimmers and divers did a great job. The kids that were here to participate in the meet had a good time and the meet ran efficiently. I received a lot of compliments about how great our varsity swimmers and divers are. Great job and thank you to everyone that was able to help out.
Thanks

Items for this week and next
We're in to February and soon it will be March. Great things are happening everyday in practices and we are starting to really put it together. It will be a great next six weeks.
I will be getting the fastskin order in tomorrow by 3:00 pm. If you would like a fastskin but didn't order one today, email or call me to gaurantee yours. You don't have to pay until they come in. It sounds like the FSPro's are hard to come by right now but should be delivered by the state meet. The FSII's are available in every size but they are different colors. I just need to see what I can get a hold of. The new LZR Elite's are what I have on hold right now and I will order them tomorrow based on what we need.
A big night tomorrow night. Hamilton seems to be buzzing about the dinner tomorrow night. Hopefully there is a great turnout. It should be a fun night.
Saturday we are hosting the WMSL "B" Conference Meet at our pool. This is the lone fundrasier that we do for the varsity program. The varsity program gets $1,000 for taking care of this. This money helps offset some of the cost of warm-ups, suits, food, etc. We need all hands on deck to help run this meet. Swimmers and divers need to report to the pool by 7:30 am and we should be done by about 12:30 pm. The guys will have a short practice after the meet and will be done at 2:00 pm.
Next week Saturday is the MISCA Meet at Eastern Michigan. We will be going for the day, leaving around 7:45 and returning around 7:30 or so depending on what we do for lunch/dinner. I have a preliminary list of those that are qualified at the pool. Anyone qualified in an individual event is expected to attend. Others may be asked to join us for relay swims. I will have the list finalized by next Monday. The guys will need to have snacks, drinks and money for lunch/dinner.
That should be it for tonight.
Thanks
