What a great meet! Way to go Hurricanes for
winning our first away meet of the season! Despite a large percentage of our
swimmers being absent due to illness, the team really came together and gave it
their best. Congratulations to each swimmer who came out and really gave it
their all. That’s what being a team is all about!
Once again we had a whole bunch of swimmers complete a personal best time

Way to go guys! The following 5 swimmers for creating new records for an event
in their age group; Riley Geason, Jake Bertolini-Felice, Caroline Kapadia,
Denver Davis and Trent Triplett. Awesome job!
I also want to give a Team Spirit shout-out to Lauren Reichardt. Even
though the doctor said that she couldn’t swim, this girl showed up to the meet
with a smile on her face to cheer on her brother and her team mates. Way to go
Lauren!
Finally, I want to say how impressed I was with the number of Highcroft
swimmers who, after they got out of the water, waited at the end of their lane
to shake hands with the swimmers from Haddon Hall who were in their race. Good
sportsmanship is so important, and I was very proud of those of you who
remembered to do this. You represent the Highcroft Hurricanes admirably.
Congratulations to everybody on a really wonderful meet, on some great
swims, and on awesome sportsmanship and team spirit!
