Took a few days to get the full results online...but click HERE to view full results.
With the Juniata college Roster a little light with numbers we were able to fill in some empty lanes and give 3 swims to everyone! Special congrats to Britt Rehrig for breaking the 400 IM pool record and to the 800 free relay (campbell, durham, terray, rehrig) for establishing a new pool record.
Great day for our 3 seniors swimming in their last LHU home meet! Very proud of them!

Saturday
After a tough Saturday morning workout the team was surprised with an afternoon off ... Safe to say the women were happy about some quality time @ the resort.
There were slide races ... with Adam being the overall champ with a 12.31. Kasey had a respectable 13.38.
Below are the best times for the rest of the participants.
Gardner - 13.90
Wilbur - 14.54
Williams - 15.89
Terray - 14.00
Kinard - 14.97
Faulstick - 19.08
Berri - 22.62
Daversa - 16.65
Conklin - 18.24
For dinner I treated Stoner and Wilbur to a Da Kine (delish) burrito while the team had their annual team only dinner/secret santa exchange.

"Florida's Best Mexican Food" ... hardly
To and from the resort we pass a little restaurant that proudly displays a sign saying they have "Florida's Best Mexican Food" well as I consider myself an "expert" in fine mexican cuisine and if that is the best Florida has to offer then I must say I'm disappointed.
(The white dew slurpee for dessert kinda made up for it)

Relay Meet
We had a lot of fun swimming with Mt Union tonight. The order of events consisted of a 400 medley relay (8 x 50), 300 fly relay (6 x 50), 300 back relay (6 x 50), 300 breast (6 x 50) 600 indiv I'm, and the monster relay (everyone swims a 50 free) ... With the monster relay coming down to the final stroke.
Event concluded with a group cheer!
We proceeded to the mall for some cold stone ("LOVE IT"). Chik-filet also enjoyed a surge of business.
Tonights a big night for TV.

Back in the Blog Business
Looks like the alternate email account to post did the trick.
Here is a recap of what we did last night at practice.
A great ab/core dryland followed by a main set of 50 X 50. All choice with the following ones being all out.
10
18,20
26,28,30
34,36,38,40
42,44,46,48,50
For dinner we made several runs "out" taco bell seemed to be the popular choice, along with subway and some major Nug action at McDonalds.
Woke up to some rain puttin a damper on our planned morning dryland but we are still planning on swimming this morning ... With a bit of a suprise for them this afternoon!

Day 2
We had a really great workout this morning, a good mix of longer yards with some fast swims broken up with a decent kick set. Finished practice with a few sprint 50's fly from the block ... for no other reason than to finish up the workout strong (not as a punishment contrary to popular belief)
The sun is bright and shiny today with a few clouds in the sky, looks like we may get a little rain tonight into tomorrow, so the team is soaking it all in ... my guess is we will start making a few field trips tomorrow.
Looking forward to another great workout this afternoon!!

End of Day 1
I am pretty happy with how the first day of practice went ... we lucked out by having all 8 lanes to train in (this isn't the case for the rest of the week) so we enjoyed 3 or 4 to a lane, and a few special lanes of 1 or 2.
Did some long swimming for some (9 x 400im's) and some sprints with others (10 x 50's / 5 x 100's / 3 x 200 twice). Really looking forward to some more great swimming tomorrow!! I will do a better job of posting some pictures!

session 1
Click HERE for the live timing link ... from there select the event you'd like to see results for.
Pretty decent night of swimming for us...very happy with the efforts from top the bottom. This is a very fast pool and I am hoping to have some more repeat performances, if not even better, tomorrow. I will have to update y'all via the cell phone, but please click on the above link to see the actual results.
Special note was our 2nd place 200 free relay, with Sam Durham leading off in an all time top 5 performance, just missing a NCAA 'b' cut by .02. Kasey Campbell and Kristin Taylor placed 4th / 5th in the 500 with some really great swims. The 200 IM saw some new faces giving it a shot....with Terray, Durham placing 8th and 9th both coming close to the PSAC cut time. Rehrig placing 2nd in the 50 free with a NCAA'b' cut time of 24.46.
The 400 medley relay placed first breaking their very own invitational record (from last year) with a 3:57.58.
On a side note it is apparently extremely hilarious when an individual (myself) is trying to eat a fruit smiley fruit snack by tossing the horrible yellow flavor into the mouth, missing the mouth, hitting a lip with it falling onto the ground ... ask Nicole Faulstick, she will tell you all about the hilariousness.
