A humdrum boring refrain was the hallmark of tonight's third day of competition. Just more of the same old fast swimming - It was NOT boring! haha The evening began with a near team and meet record performance in the 4 x 50 MR. Ashlyn, Gwen, Holy and Alex teamed up for a great opening effort at 1:42.7. And while the team will miss Alex's 22.6 anchor the front half of the relay remians intact for two more years..."looking for a sprint freestyler for a national championship potential relay". Next...

Schroeder was off to a fast start but early start this morning as the session began with the sprint medleys. The Men's relay was solid - the guys are swimming well but we are just not strong enough to earn second swims. The Women has safe starts and solid swims and cruised through to the final. Many good individual swims were turned in during the session by the whole group. We suffered some very near misses notably Meghan Casey and Holly Stoll were just outside scoring. Three did make it...
Schroeder had an amazing session tonight. The evening began with Ashlyn grabbing 3rd place with a 54.0 - great swim! Nick led from the gun and took another title 47.6 (SWIMSWAM's time was a little slow). Alex swam a great race - hard fought battle and got nabbed at the last 25 for 2nd! The Women's relay was really fun. The girls led through 200 yards but Middle Tyger's 53 sec fly leg proved too much and Schroeder finished 2nd with a new team and state record 3:41.25! Ashlyn...
More solid swimming from Schroeder on Day 2 Prelims. Returning for the evening are Ashlyn Schoof 100 Back, Nick Petersen 100 Back, Alex Meyers 200 Free and the women's 4 x 100 MR. All of these swims are in the A Final and Nick is 1st and the relay is 2nd. There were many good performances from the squad this morning and during time trials. The self proclaimed MEN's Team swam an awfully good 400 MR with very good splits and time trials also produced many fine efforts. It's hard...

Schroeder swam very well in the finals of the first day of the 2014 National YMCA Swimming Championships! Highlights: Ashlyn Schoof started the evening session by dropping about half a second in the consolation final of the 100 fly to 55.00. Nick Petersen won the 100 fly title with an outstanding effort!

Gwen Worlton swam a brilliant 200 breast breaking her own team...
