4. Coaches Corner
• Coaches were very happy to see the many outstanding swims at distance Pac meet and the 12 and under Pac meet. Seahawks were very strong winning many heats and events. LTBS were being made by the tons. Keep up the great training as we get ready for the wildcat/NKC meets.
• Hat tradition … As the weather gets cold all Seahawks should wear a knit hat and warm clothes.
• We welcome Hillary ran to our coaching staff. She will assist in the A-2 group on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Hillary swam with CAC in the late 90’s for about 5-6 years. She is going back to school to get her masters in special education.
• Don’t forget your grade cards for honor roll.
