200 BACK ... we had 4 swimmers make it back ... Faulstick & Gardner ended up racing neck and neck only to finish .15 seconds apart. Schaefer ended up 11th and Terray ended up winning the meet with a new meet record!
100 FREE ... Durham moved her way onto our all time top 5 performance list with her 54.90 (from prelims) ended up going 54.91 in finals to finish 3rd. Vagnoni smashed her lifetime best in the morning only to go faster at night, finishing 8th. Brooks finished 9th, Navarro finished 10th and Mills finished 12th.
200 BREAST ... Fountaine dropped about 5 seconds from her prelim swim at night! Navarro dropped about 3 seconds to finish 2nd and Rehrig swam a much smarter race at night to finish 1st ... that's right sports fans, a 1-2 finish in the 200 breast!
200 FLY ... Kinard, Milstead & Palmer swam the grueling event in style, looking very good the whole way.
400 FREE RELAY ... we won the previous 4 relays, so we were going for the sweep ... to spare you the suspense we swam another GREAT relay to finish first. Winning all 5 relays. Love it.
Sorry for the lack of awesome stories on this trip ... too many totally awesome swims to report on. I will be sure to include many more awesome stories for our loyal readers.

vs. Mansfield ~ PANCAN.org
This past Saturday's meet versus Mansfield was against Mansfield. We also sold a large number of Purple Shirts (see crazy jo-el for the modeling photo) in support of www.PANCAN.org. An organization to support Pancreatic Cancer Research. Team looked great rockin’ the purple shirts.
We had a great meet. Our women have a tremendous amount of team spirit … I don’t think we have had such a supportive group of teammates in any of the previous seasons. Britt Rehrig added to her tally of PSAC qualifying times with the lead off leg of the 100 backstroke and her swims in the 200 IM & 200 breaststroke. The IM was good enough for 4th on our all time top 5 performance list and the breaststroke ranks her 3rd.
Another standout performance was Alison Schaefer’s 1000 free … we may have found her calling. Sam Durham and Kasey Campbell battled it out during the whole 200 free (.04 apart after the first 50, .40 apart after the 100, .05 apart after the 150) with Sam finishing 1 tenth of a second ahead of Kasey. Fun race!!
Jenna Brooks and Rachel Vagnoni went 1-2 in the 50 freestyle, Britt and Sarah Navarro went 1-2 in the 200IM with very impressive swims. Amanda Palmer won the 200 fly. Sam also won the 100 free, with Brittany williams placing 2nd. Our 200 breaststrokers, Britt, Amanda and Sarah had the times to go 1,2,3.
The team was rewarded was some wonderful Halloween treats … complements of Katie (our GA), Kim (my fiancé) and Mrs Rehrig (britt’s mom). Tonight we are going to have our 5th annual Halloween practice. I am happy to report (sorry Mr E) that I broke the record in terms of poundage of candy purchased.
