Summary 1st Meets of the Season

Heartland Arrowhead Scrimmage

This was the 1st scrimmage in several years for our team. It was nice to have and we worked out a lot of bugs, with a lot of new swimmers. Graduating 12 seniors from last years team we have a lot of holes to fill. After watching our young team, I'm very impressed by our talent, we just need to grow up. The future of TIDE swimming stays very bright. The Intermediate school program and our BTIDE USA program is paying off great dividends. We no longer have to totally rebuild, we just need to wait for them to grow up... This will be a great year by the time we get to February.

Tuesday night we won all three varsity relays and two individual events. I was also impressed with our talent skill level of our skilled events (IM, Fly, Back, and Breast). Our only true weakness is the 500 free and veteran depth in the freestyle depth.

We also saw our 1st divers for the 1st time in 5 years. They are all freshman and show great promise.

Sun Prairie Dual Meet


Though we we are a young team, I was very happy with our overall passion that we swam with. The score does not show how well we swam overall. Again I'm impressed with our skill events, out scoring the Cardinals in the Fly, Back and Breast. We also had very strong I.M. swims. I do believe when we meet up in the conference meet in 3 months the outcome will be different.
