I'll put something in that is fun when they've worked hard late in the season. It helps keep them motivated to finish the season strong.

I think we still have some qualifications for this team. For the girls who might be a bit off, they're still going to keep getting better, too.

Probably our best swim was the medley team re-qualifying. Vanessa has jumped in there in the butterfly for us, and it has gone well.

Those girls have really stepped up for us.

You could see in our two freestyle relays how we missed her. It will take some time for us to get used to not having her.

We've been working hard to cut some more times. There are also a couple of girls trying to fill in at the relay positions where we need it.

For as small of a swim team (Gunnison) is, they have some great depth. They came off a long bus ride and swam well.
