SwimMAC Wins NC Senior Champs!

It was a busy weekend of swimming for SwimMAC at the Senior Championships. We had almost 100 senior swimmers competing, and despite the Saturday and Sunday sessions being changed to timed finals due to the inclement weather, spirits were high and the swimming was fast. The SwimMAC Men placed 1st over New South 625.5 to 510, the Women placed 2nd to Star 506-464, and, most importantly, SwimMAC won the Combined Team Score over New Wave 1,089.5 to 768. Winning the senior state championship is an important accomplishment. Way to go team!

New Sectional Cuts were made by Billy Murch-Elliot (1000Fr), Peter Brumm (1000Fr), Logan Heck (500Fr, 1000Fr), Andrew Wrist (1000Fr), Sam Ormand (100Br), Lee Ward (100Fly), Jonathan Peterson (400IM), Heather Isetts (50Fr), Kevin Glen (100Bk), Caroline Bryant (500Fr), Dillion Love (500Fr), Katherine Plevka (200Bk).

SwimMAC has great showing this weekend at the Larson Allen Invite

SwimMAC had a great weekend of swimming at the Larson Allen Invite. Many swimmers achieved lifetime best times and in-season best times at the meet. The coaching staff was very encouraged by what they saw at the meet and really look forward to our performance in the upcoming championship season. North Baltimore Aquatic Club won the meet with 7336.5 points followed by SwimMAC with 6243 points and Y-Spartaquatics was third with 4936 points. We want to thank Danen Murray and Stephanie Miller for their leadership and organizational efforts with the meet.
