Meet Results: BGP vs. SV
Thank you to each and every one of you for an awesome first meet today! Despite my best efforts, we somehow tend to always have some first meet kinks to work out and I really appreciate everyone's patience! I know delays can be frustrating, but oftentimes we're in the computer room scrambling to replace sick swimmers in relays so the other three kiddos get to swim. For many of our swimmers, relays are their opportunity to earn ribbons, so we do our best to fill as many relays as possible and that was definitely a big part of the delay today!
I also sincerely apologize to those of you who did not receive the meet info email. In an attempt to only send to attending families, I clearly made a big mistake and left many of you off. From now on, everyone gets everything!
On to the results! Despite taking a smaller team (we had 53 swimmers to their 61), we still pulled off the win!
BGP Stars 269 to SV Dolphins 220
Girls: BGP 137 to SV 130
Boys: BGP 132 to SV 90
A few things to note:
- All results have been posted to Swimptopia, so you can either go into your account on our website or login to the Swimtopia app on your mobile devise to see times for your swimmer(s). To access online, login to the website, go to your account, then click on each swimmer.
- This year, DQ information has been entered if your swimmer was disqualified. The software only allows one code per swimmer, so our coaches made notes if there were multiple infractions. If your swimmer DQed (this happens a lot at the first meet!), rest assured that the coaches will all be working hard in the coming days on technique, starts, turns, & finishes to reduce the number of DQs at our next meet!
- Ribbons will be delivered to the pool each week after the meet. There will be a bin of folders with each swimmer's name on it. Please take the ribbons & awards and leave the envelope for the next meet.
- Just a reminder that today's meet will count as two meets for any swimmers who participated. As a result, they now qualify to attend the relay meet as well as prelims!
