Hi Riptide Families,

What an incredible Day 2 of Conference! Our older swimmers truly stepped up tonight and continued the momentum from an amazing conference week. We couldn’t be prouder of the effort, determination, and team spirit they showed all evening.

Our swimmers had an outstanding night in the pool, finishing with an incredible 90% best times! Along with the two top-seeded swims from Monday night, we added six more this evening, giving us eight top-seeded individual swims heading into tomorrow night’s finals. This is an amazing accomplishment that reflects all of the hard work these athletes have put in throughout the season.

Below is a list of swimmers by age group who qualified to swim in Wednesday night’s finals by placing in the top 18 (with 17th & 18th serving as alternates) and/or are on a free relay. Please note that there have been several relay changes, so be sure to review the list carefully. If your swimmer is listed below, they should plan to attend Wednesday morning’s practice to prepare for finals. Practice times have been adjusted to allow swimmers a little extra rest before the quick turnaround to finals: 12 & Unders: 9:30–10:15 AM and 13 & Ups: 10:15–11:00 AM.
