Update from Senior Champs

Congratulations to all T2 Aquatics athletes for great performances at last weekend's Senior Championship meet. We placed 2nd in the overall team score, which met the goal we had for the competition. This is our best finish ever! It was a total team effort with points scored by many athletes -- and considering we placed 2nd by less than 20 points, every point counted. Special Congrats to Justine Mueller for winning 5 events and setting 4 US Masters Age Group American Records (400 IM twice in 4:19, 200 IM (1:57), 200 Back (1:58); to Erika Erndl for winning 4 events and setting 1 US Masters Age Group American Record (100 Free 48.03, which gives Erika a total of 7 events in which she holds a National Record); to Elise Haan for winning 3 events and setting a Florida State Record (15-16 Age Group) in the 100 Back (53.91); and to Ksen Golovkina for winning the 100 Breaststroke with a lifetime best of 1:01.8. In addition to these 13 event wins, our women's team won each of the 5 relays, all under the meet record time (with the four women mentioned above, and including Avery Mohring on the 800 Free Relay) -- including one (400 Free Relay) which broke the long-standing Bolles School record in achieving the All-Time Florida Swimming Record withj a 3:19+ 400.

As is our normal mode of operation, it is "on to the next one" for everyone on T2 Aquatics. Our Seniors are getting ready for a great summer of competition, and our Age Groupers are priming for their Championship meet -- which will take place next weekend in Sarasota. Let's go T2!!
