Thanks to the helpers at last nights meet: Pat Montain (where rumor has it that she could not be pried away from Lane 1 timing after her last home meet as a swim parent - we'll be taking applications and holding interviews for that crucial position for next year, unless she is still there), Charlie Ydoate, Suzan Culver, Beth Flynn, Tom and Lynn Oertel, Amy Curry and Bob Lanciault.

Check out the results which I posted on the website. There are a few times that are within reach of qualifying for sectionals – with 3 dual meets and the DCL Championships remaining, there are 4 more opportunities! We have 8 athletes in 4 different events so far in the post season!
Team Pictures were taken by Henry Studios – every kid on the team was there (and lookin’ good!). These pics include the photo for the yearbook, and you can order prints at the banquet if you desire – Henry donates the proceeds from these sales to HABA. They also have action shots from the meet – contact them if you would like to see them as well.
It was great to see every kid at the meet. I spoke with Jim Carboneau, the HHS Athletic Director, who was in the stands and he was pleased to see the performances and improvements of the kids.
Thanks to the volunteers for timing and score-keeping:
Bob Beauchemin, Lynn and Tom Oertel, Pat Montain (Lane 1 expert), Amy Curry, Beth Flynn (she has no choice since I’m doing the recruiting), Suzan Culver, Pat Hutchinson, and Ed Kriegsman – Hope I’m not forgetting anyone!
