5th to 2nd...nice taper!

Thanks swimfan for the numbers. However, aside from X the state numbers are meaningless at this point. At the district level they may be more predictive. Although be wary of SC and StF. Both have a history of dropping time and moving up. SC has a great deal of room to improve both in relays and...

Oh how times have changed rjones. X now has 30 swims in the top 24 and is number 1 in the 100, 500, and fly. In relays they're first in the Medley and 200. They're second in the 400. Meanwhile your "dominate" Bears lead in one event and the 400 relay. They've dropped from 26 swims to 16. So how...

All-state selections announced. St. Charles understandably had the most selections. Thomas Lennox from St. Charles was named player of the year. Remaining selections for first team honors are as follows: Chris Edwards, St. Charles, Keegan Graham, St. Xavier; Avery Voss, Upper Arlington; James...

As projected St. Charles won the state championship. However it was far more competitive in the final game than predicted. UA had an outstanding tournament, playing their best polo of the year. They led SC by 3 at the half. SC came back with a strong third quarter and took the lead by 2. SC...

Nice day of water pole Saturday in Columbus. St. Charles hosted its Novice Tournament. Both St. Charles and UA played 2 teams. Not certain how UA divided their squad, but SC played a Freshman team and a JV. Both UA teams manhandled the SC Frosh. SC JV won its 3 games beating one of UA's teams in...

No, Centerville swims at the Washington Township Recreation Center.

Based on the Wild Knight Invite this past weekend, St. Charles is the overwhelming favorite to repeat as state champion in domineering fashion. Both X and SC divided their varsity squads into A & B teams. St. Charles Varsity A squad won all its games by 10 or more goals including defeating both...

Interesting weekend in Rockford. St. Charles won its group but lost to the winners of the other groups - Dexter and Hudsonville. Dexter topped SC by a single goal, but Hudsonville (the defending Michigan state champions) beat the Cards 5-15. Hudsonville game was competitive until the last 3 or 4...

Worthington pool is owned by a nonprofit corporation. The school district owns the land and pays an annual subsidy that gives them access and use of the pool. I believe that Mason's pool is operated and perhaps funded by the community rather than the school district. But like Worthington the...

Nice opening week end. Not sure how much we learned about the top teams. SC sent its B varsity. Not sure if X had its top team there. UA's freshman looked pretty good. SC couldn't swim with them, but X could. This weekend in Rockford should give an idea of how X and SC match up. Both will...

Hey rjones. How come UA isn't going to the Early Bird in Michigan?

Its been awhile rjones! Where have you been the last few years as UA struggled. After 50+ years in the top 2 they dropped all the way to 4th a couple of years ago. And the once invincible girls have eked out the last two district titles. Not sure they can repeat this year. Nonetheless, you are...

Those meets should prove very interesting. Presumably also these teams will swim the Big 8. Looking at X's performance at the St. Charles Showdown. they don't look to be as deep as in recent years. Of course they didn't have everyone at the St. Charles meet. UA also is not as deep as last year...

SC swam well at the Northeast Classic. They have positioned themselves to maintain a strong 2nd in the district. Although they will not beat UA, if they hit their taper they will be closer to UA than last year. Meanwhile, UA has posted information about its Invitational on February 4, 2012...

Information about the 2011 Ned Reeb is posted on swimmeet.com. COSA the meet sponsor is instituting an interesting new aspect to the meet. This year in addition to the prelim/final with cut times (designated "A-flight") there will be a "B-flight" that will swim between the A-flight prelims and...
