Last Chance Meet

There was a Last Chance before State Swim Meet on Saturday, March 3rd in Bryant. It gives the kids one last shot at getting a qualifying time for the State Meet the following weekend.) There were a couple of other kids from our ward there (that are on a different team), so it was fun to hang out with them and cheer each other on.

Kam got scratched from the 100 IM because even if she cut off a second that she needed to qualify for this event at State, she could only swim 3 individual events per day and she had already qualified for 3 in Saturday's portion of the meet.

On the blocks for the 200 IM - a new event for Kammie. [She'd done the 100 IM before, but this was the first time in the 200 distance. That's 50 yards (two lengths of the pool) for every stroke.]
Change...They got everyone down off the blocks and decided to run the girls and boys 200 IM at the same time because between the boys and girls there were only 7 swimmers for the 8 lanes.
