A very happy thanksgiving from the Lady Eagle Swim Team!
Our women are enjoying some quality time away from campus, but not away from the pool (!!). We are back to practice Monday morning to get ready for the Grove City College invitational.

Friday Finals...
Results click HERE
Spectacular night of swimming for us. Our 200 medley relay finished 2nd in a great race to Cal U, with a NCAA 'b' cut!
Shannon Milstead dropped 6 awesome seconds in the 400im from her prelims swim. Britt Rehrig swam a NCAA 'b' cut in the 100 fly prelims, scratching finals to focus on the 100 breast ... Jenna Brooks swam to a 4th place finish with a time that was a little slower than her prelim swim. Sam Durham improved her PSAC cut time in the 100 fly to a 1:01...Kristin Taylor and Gwen Buss both dropped some time in finals of the 100 fly as well.
The 200 free was another great event for us ... Sam Durham just missed breaking 2:00 in the 200, (although my stopwatch had a 1:59.99 - legit). Kristen Capretti the 18th seed, won her heat from lane 6, dropping over 3 seconds. Kristen Taylor also dropped a little time!
All 6 of our 100 breaststrokers made it back! All swam great races! Very impressive. Highlighted by Britt Rehrig's 1:04.9. Good enough to break the meet record and a NCAA "B" cut!
Amanda Terray and Sara Daversa swam the 100 backstrokes. With Amanda winning the event with a solid B cut time. Our 800 free relay all had some great splits!
Really looking forward to tomorrow's session!!

Thursday Finals
results can be found HERE
We started off the night with a very respectable 200 free relay placing 2nd ... our time broke the previous meet record from 2002, but we were bested by CAL who won the event. We split up the B - E relays giving some of our "sprinters" the opportunity to lead off the relays to get another shot at a flat start.
The 500 free style had 2 LHU swimmers, Kasey Cambell and Kristin Taylor. Both were in Lane 6 right in front of us and swam very similar races to their prelim swims, just a hair slower. The 200 IM was goo event for us with Kaitlyn Druby swimming the bonus heat again just a hair slower than her prelim swim. The final heat at 2 LHU swimmers, Sarah Navarro and Britt Rehrig. Sarah didn't have the swim that she did in the morning and placed 6th ... Britt had a fantastic race and dropped her time some more. Another "B" cut and all time top 5 performance.
We had 5 swimmers make it back in the 50 free ... but Britt scratched the final so that she could get a little extra rest. So we had Amanda Terray and Jenna Brooks just missing PSAC cuts ... freshman, Kristen Capretti making her first ever PSAC cut and Sam Durham swimming a lifetime best over in lane 1, and placing herself on the all time top 5 list in the event.
We finished the night with the 400 medley relay ... and we had some really great swims across the board (we entered 5 relays). Our A relay placed 2nd ... the same 4some was about 4 seconds faster this year than last.
We had a feast at Ruby Tuesday (to go) and I went on another supply run to wal mart for some additional breakfast items and juices (i got myself a dew...sorry kim :-) ) ... went on my run and now I am blogging the days events.
Tomorrow should be a great day for us ... 100's of stroke and the 200 free. Really looking forward to another day of swimming fast and kicking some A money money.

What a spectacular morning of swimming! Out of 29 swims this morning all but 3 were season best times ... with a good number of them being lifetime best swims. PRETTY AWESOME.
Swims of note include Britt Rehrig's 200IM (ncaa "b" cut) - 2:11.22, which is also good enough for 2nd on our all time top 5 list. Sarah Navarro's PSAC qualifying time in the 200 IM - 2:16.41. Sam Durham's PSAC cut time of 24.89, also a lifetime best swim.
We had the worlds longest trip to Subway followed by some quality rest and relaxation. Headed into finals adding in the 200 free relay and 400 medley relay.

no longer a Hampton fan ... BUT, we have live webcast of the meet!
Long story short ... Hampton Inn didn't receive the contract I mailed back or either of the 2 faxes I sent, so with a little luck we are back at our old stomping ground (super 8) with Coach Pat and the Fairmont State Falcons. That is all I am going to type about that.
I am not going to have a chance to blog too much this evening BUT I have a few links for you to follow.

We r here and warming up...
We have done the same meet warm up the past few practices so the team knows the "drill" and their bodies can feel/know when they're warmed up.

We have 16 miles to go. The plan is to go straight to the pool to get in a warm up swim, get the bus ride out of the system ...
Followed by a traditional dinner @ the Fire Mountain Buffet...

Big win against ESU
We had a great meet versus ESU. That started off with a moment of silence in remembrance of Fran Crippen (click HERE to learn more about Fran).
Our team really wanted the W and showed it from the get go having come up a few points shy in last year's dual meet.
First event was the 200 medley relay ... we went 1-3 just missing the pool record set by the same foursome (terray, rehrig, brooks, durham) 2 weeks ago.
Next up was the 1000 ... going 1-2 with commanding performances by Kasey Campbell and Kristin Taylor. Sam Kaleck swam it for the first time ever and did very well. Sam Durham won the 200 free in a PSAC qualifying time. Amanda Terray won the 100 back also with a PSAC cut time.
Britt Rehrig won the 100 breast with a NCAA "b" cut time and new Zimmerli pool record.
Event 6 (200 fly) was the first event we didn't win, but we rebounded well with a Capretti, Terray & Brooks...1-2-3 finish in the 50 free, followed by a Durham, Capretti 1-2 finish in the 100 free. The 200 backstroke was another event we didn't win, but the 3-4-5 finish helped with keep the meet in check.
Britt Rehrig won the 200 breast in a PSAC cut time with great swims from Sarah Navarro and Kaityln Druby. The 500 free was up next and ended up being another event we didn't win, but Campbell, Milstead and Kinard swam very well. Jenna Brooks had a great come from behind win the 100 fly. Sam Durham and Kristin Taylor had a great 3-4 finish. Britt Rehrig won her 4th event of the day in the 200 im.
The 200 free relay ended the meet, with our women going 2-3-5.
Final score was LHU 159 / ESU 103
