The best thing on the guys' side was diving. That's one of the best scores in the state in a six-dive meet. Going into district, he should have some confidence.
Jimmy has been giving a consistent effort since last fall when he started training club. He goes to high school practice and is lifting weights all the time. He's put in a solid, solid effort.
She's not tapered yet. I think she will be ready. She gets up for big meets the right way. She gets a little bit nervous, but it makes her want to excel.
Sometimes she doesn't get out the fastest in the first 25. Our plan was to go into the turn as hard as we could at the start of the 50 and build from there. That's basically what she did. She was in fourth after the first 25. She slowed a little bit and then passed everyone in the final 25.
Kristen had a pretty average day for her. She has been injured and only been in the water just a little bit, but she's always pretty consistent. One or two of her dives might have been a little off, but I think she's looking to dive a little bit better at the state.
This is the first time since 2001 that this program has been funded, and we know it will be put to good use this winter.
I thought he did really well. It was a good experience for him. He learned that in big meets he has to be a little more aggressive on the dives you know you can handle. Even on the ones you don't think you are going to score so well, you still have to be aggressive no matter what.
We felt really good about (the meet). We got the whole team involved. We didn't swim a loaded lineup by any means. We haven't tapered at all yet, so our idea coming in was to swim good times. We accomplished about 70 to 80 percent of what we wanted to accomplish.
We've had a lot of tough games, and I think we're about to be in one. We can use that experience to help us pull through.
