First meet of the season in Hercules on 9/24-25


Solid performance from the few Marlins swimmers who attended our first meet of the season in Hercules. The weather was nice on Saturday and we caught the first rainy day of the season for Sunday …. Let’s call that day a heavy drizzle. In any case rain or shine, our swimmers remained focus on the task at hand and either swam a best time or close to it. The strokes were clean for the most part and the few mistakes made are helping us redefine practice goals.

The meet in numbers. 14 swimmers raced 56 events, 41% best times and 71% of the swimmers achieving at least one best time. As far as first meets go, this was a much better performance than last year showing the kids are on pace with their training. We also had 3 new team records from Coco Berkenfield in the 50 back (with a new PRT) and 50 breast and Jared Sears in the 100 back. Worth mentioning, a new JO time standard in the 100 free from Anton Zahradnik.

Go job, Go Marlins!
