New Year Starts with a Bang

3 Meets in 3 Days after a great two and half weeks of great winter break training.

Thursday: Rock County Championship

The Knights defended their Rock County Championship title for a 4Peat. We won 1st places in 9 of 11 events, setting 3 meet records, in a total team effort. All swimmers entered in the meet had at least one personal best and many season best.

The Tide started out the meet with a statement swim by going 1st and 2nd in the Medley Relay scoring 104 points with all 4 of our relays, and team just kept rolling on, through out the meet.
Meet Records were set by Nathan Sill in the 50 Free, Anthony Jacobson 500 Free, and the 400 Free Relay of Ben Saladar, CJ Light, Anthony Jacobson, and Nathan Sill. Anthony Jacobson's 500 was the 12th fastest time in school history.
