Fall Travel Swim Meet

Amber had a wonderful week-end at our swim team's Fall Travel Meet!  The highest award that swimmers with our USA swim club can earn is the Super Swimmer Award.  To earn that award, swimmers have to swim almost ALL of the different events offered at USA meets.  Amber swam three events at the Indy Travel Meet that she doesn't usually swim:  the 200 Yard Breaststroke, the 200 Yard Individual Medley, and the 100 Yard Breaststroke.  Breaststroke is definitely NOT her favorite stroke but it was great seeing her stretch herself and swim events that she rarely swims.
The highlights of the swim meet for Amber were making 4 personal best times, scoring points for her team in every event in which she raced, taking first place in 4 events, and taking second place in one event!

Mason had an awesome week-end as well!  Mason is also trying to earn the Super Swimmer award from our swim team this year so he competed in a few events that were new to him, the 200 Breaststroke and the 500 Freestyle.  Mason just aged-up to the 13-14 division and the competition is quite a bit harder than in the 11-12 division.  He did so well at the swim meet, though!  

Highlights of the meet for Mason were scoring points for his team in EVERY event in which he raced and 8 personal best times!
