Coach Update By Matt Brown What a great season we have had so far! Congratulations to Nikita Rubocki for getting the BK Record in the 100 butterfly with a time of 1:01.51 in last week’s swim meet. We are heading towards the end of our swim season with 20 State qualifiers! There are a few more swimmers that are very close. As a team we need to continue to work hard at practice and remember the goals that you have set for the season. If you have met your goal already make a new! This is the time to really focus on your techniques before District and State. It will be important to perfect starts and turns too. It will be necessary to get plenty of rest and good nutrition for the last few weeks of swim team. We need a healthy team going into Districts and State!
