Hi everyone:
Please forward to your teams/families.......
Our league was well represented at
the Great Lakes Zone Meet this past weekend in Cleveland,
Ohio. 32 KYCSL swimmers competed against other top swimmers
from the states of Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia, and
Indiana. Our KY swimmers did very well and I thoroughly
enjoyed watching them swim and compete at such a high level.
The KYCSL teams all hung out together in a team area so I
also enjoyed the opportunity to visit briefly with many of
the swimmers from teams other than my own (13-overs from BYB,
BCY, and AAY). Additionally, KY Zone t-shirts were furnished
to every swimmer which all the swimmers proudly displayed
throughout the meet, as did some of the parents in the
bleacher area! Special thanks to Sarah Holman at "10th
planet" for the shirts!! Our league continues to improve
with quality and very talented swimmers, programs, and
coaches. I fully expect this trend to continue into next
season especially coming off the upcoming Olympics. I do
hope that all of the swimmers in our league who qualify for
Zones from all of our teams are able to attend this meet in
the future. Next year's meet is going to be held in Flynt,
Michigan on March 20-22.
Here is a brief synopsis of how our league swimmers did at
the meet:
