Good afternoon, everyone!

Thank you to all of our swimmers who competed Saturday in Sun Prairie.  It is difficult to keep up with a team that brings four times as many swimmers as we do, but there was so much to celebrate in the pool.  A special "Thank You!" to our swimmers who had to swim up an age group to help cover gaps and give the team our best chance to compete.  We appreciate you!  Results are attached to this message.

A couple of things to note:

1) Most swimmers have been declared for our 7/18 meet.  If your swimmer has not been declared as attending or not, you should have received an email a short time ago reminding you to do so.  If swimmers are left undeclared by midnight on Tuesday, they will not be included in the meet lineup for this weekend.

2) We are also requiring conference declarations to be submitted by Tuesday this week.  This lineup is different than all of our other meets, as we are only allowed three entries per individual event (essentially, there are no Exhibition races).  If you and your swimmer plan on attending that meet, please declare ASAP.  Numerous families have not done so yet, so please take some time to complete this task and give our coaching staff time to build our best lineup possible.  If you have questions about declaring your swimmer, please reach out.

Here is what to expect this week:

7/13:  Final big yardage day of the season.  We will work a lot of freestyle and stroke yards with short/intermediate rest intervals.

7/14:  IM day; we will work all four strokes and transitions.

7/15:  Speed day.  Higher intervals, shorter yardage, expectation to move fast in the water.

7/16:  Longer warm-up and a kick set, followed by stations and getting better on the walls (starts, turns, transitions, finishes).

7/17:  Lighter workout aimed at getting ready for our Saturday meet.

7/18:  Home meet versus Sauk Prairie.  Details will follow with an email (likely) on Thursday!  Please make sure you are signed up for a volunteer shift.

Enjoy your week, and please reach out with any questions that may arise!
