Too bad that Denison didn't want to host. That would be more convenient for Columbus area teams, although with the bypass in place around Nelsonville it's a much easier drive to Athens. Before the traffic champ in Nelsonville was horrid after the meet.
Looking at the times this summer, it looks like there will be some strong swimmers in this year's freshman class. Here's a list of year round swimmers (not sure all will be freshman). Would expect a larger number of freshman qualifying for district. Some of these will likely score in the district and one or two could qualify for the state meet.
Jason Mathews, Eddie Michael, Calvin Furbee, Ben Kuriger, Joel Serafy, Tommy Weimer, Gavin Voss, Michael Gutman, Thomas Clark, Jeremy Baggs, Jonathan Liu, Dominic Carifa, Everett Halverson, Jack McHugh, Brian Kray, Joshua Bowers, Griffin Beam, Pearson Spychalski, Nate Stadler, Patrick Pema, Max Dreisbach, Patrick Mahoney, Jacob Eismann, Andrew Shyu, Alec Caswell, Jack Campbell, Spencer Tussing, Francisco Soto, Jeff Hansen, Theodore Dimitrov, Tommy Dilz, Jimmy Ravine, Ben Neff, Graham Carpenter, Zach Parkman, Matt Shepard, Andy Shepard, Reid Newman, Harvey Culbert, Michael Lewis, Mason Reid, David Coss, Andrew Bernsdorf
Anyway, not surprisingly, as the number of club swimmers grows so does the depth of the district. The future looks bright.
