Hi Swim & Dive Families!

As you know, our whole team participated in a sprint triathlon last week.  As always, the competition was fierce, but in the end, Kiki won, Rachel came in 2nd, and Abby took 3rd.  Rounding out the rest of our top ten was Gabby, Emily M, Malena, Hazel, Hannah B, Bella, Lindsey, and Lauren.  Congratulations, ladies!

 This year we decided to add a little twist to the triathlon:  each girl competed for points for her dryland team. The green team had three top ten finishers which now puts them in the lead.

 We'd like to extend many, many thank yous to all of our fabulous parent and sibling volunteers.  This year's triathlon went smoothly because we had so much wonderful help!

There's even a little Lego swimmer on the bottom (I love it!).

Here's to another fantastic triathlon!  Way to go ladies and volunteers!
