Meet Recap: NHS vs Berlin/Green Lake

 Hi Swim & Dive Families!

Tuesday night our NHS swimmers and divers hosted Berlin/Green Lake.


 It was another big win for the Rockets.
On a night where there were plenty of big swims on both the JV and the Varsity, one of the highlights had to be watching our divers swim the 200 free relay.  They were darn-right fabulous!
Way to go, ladies, on another big conference win!

We'd also like to send a big thank you to this week's meal team:  Beth Beyer, Jeanne Hugo, Kari Resch, Tina Harvath, Jane Hart-Stingle, and Beth Krause.  The meal was completely delicious--we all loved it!  Thanks!!

Circuit Challenge

The first Wednesday half day practice of each season is Circuit Challenge day.  Each lane is assigned a stroke and distance, and the girls have to work their way through the lanes as many times as they can in an hour.  As an added bonus, at the end of each lane the girls need to hop out and do 10 push ups before they can move to the next lane. Congratulations to this year's overall champion, Hannah Sisto, and to Rachel Resch, Lauren Penn, Laura Setton, and Emily Martis who came in right behind her.  Be sure to ask your daughter how many push ups she did on Wednesday--you will be amazed!  Great job, ladies!

Recap: NHS vs. OLN

Hi Swim & Dive Families!

We are off to a fantastic 2-0 conference start!  Tuesday night the Varsity beat Oshkosh North/Lourdes by a score of 121-64, and the JV won by a score of 128-33!
There were plenty of great swims and a handful of new best times.
It was fun to see different relay lineups this week.  We are always looking for the very best combination of four for each relay.
Congratulations, swimmers and divers, on another fantastic dual meet!  Special thanks to this week's meal team of Maureen Bourland, Lori Waters, Judy Salm, Mary Setton, Jayne Latreille, and Deb Spanbauer who served the girls yummy mac-and-cheese for dinner.  The girls loved it!!

Next up:  Berlin/Green Lake at 5:30 on Tuesday night at NHS.  Hope to see you there!

Congratulations, Ladies!

Way to go, Varsity Swimmers and Divers on winning Friday night's Terror Relays!  
You were all fantastic, & we are very proud of you!


**Like last year, the divers had already left for a meet in Eau Claire when the meet finished, so they are not pictured.  Their first place finish certainly added to our victory!  Great job, ladies!
