Girls Swimming


Swim team in Iowa is different than swim team in Indiana. The girls are happy to be back on a swim team and their coach is very kind, but it is different.

Here the only cut they can make is for state. In Indiana they have to make cuts for divisionals and state. They have both been bummed lately because they do not have any state cuts and they are both VERY close to making a state cut. I thought I would just check their times against the Indiana cut times and it hit me that they were both doing very well. If we were in Indiana they would both have had divisional cuts and Emily would have had a state cut. That made both of them feel better and is keeping them motivated to try and get a state cut at their last swim meet. Their last swim meet is next weekend and we are all hoping for the best. We'll let you know how it goes.
