The 13th time Schroeder has traveled to the Pro - Am was a good one.  Although we had no athletes in the Shoot Out for the first time, Schroeder's Men raced and won four of the five relays offered - took a pass on the 4 x 200.  The Men finished 2nd overall (best finish at the meet) but we are unsure of the combined (probably inside the top 10) and the girls scored several relays and Megan Casey scored in the 100 breast.  Adam, Nick and Al all made...

Adam is the 3rd seed at Winter Nationals in 100 M Back going into finals.  Webcast at of his event at approximately 7:30 CST.  Adam was 55.13 this morning.  Mitchell is the top seed at the college meet at the University of Texas with a 45.8 in the 100 yard back from prelims!  Alex Meyers raced the 200 M Free and Steve Cebertowicz swam the 100 back and fly at Nationals as well.

The way it goes is the team has a rough day of travel on Thursday, Friday Prelims are usually rough and then we hit our stride on Saturday.  True to form Schroeder enjoyed great swims all night.  Mitchell made it to the Shoot Out in the 50 free and led off the session by winning his first round insuring a total of three 50 efforts during the session.  Mitchell went his best 20.50 in the first round, in the quarter final he got beat but swam a very nice 20.52...

Par for the course, SSTY began fine on Thursday evening with the relays and then we were a little disappointing in the prelim session on Friday morning after a long travel day on Thursday.  Friday night things got rolling and Saturday was really good for the team.  The men are third overall (winning three relays) and the girls are more than holding their own!  All that with a stop at Sheplers plus we learned how to count to 10 in Finnish!  We did fail on Golden Palace - but the...
