Final Thoughts
It was a great season, the future is bright. We must not rest on our laurels, we must continue the fight. We must get stronger, this team has tremendous talent returning and a strong incoming freshman class.
Remember what Coach Caldwell said, "Hard work beats talent every time, unless talent works hard". 


So there can not be an off season, we must live in that new strength and cardio facility and swim hard this summer (starting June 11).


Some goals to think about: 
10 State Qualifiers
Break all Varsity Records, they are to old.
Team Academic Gold Award 3.75

This can not happen without a lot of preparation, 
it must start NOW!!


Go TIDE!!
