Self confidence is knowing you can succeed if you work hard enough.
Arrogance is thinking it will be easy.

Thanks again to everyone who helped with the football cleanup on Friday night! It went quick, as always. This week, we have a double-dual on Tuesday and our D3 Invite on Saturday. Our Invite is made up of all Division 3 teams and is intended to provide a competitive meet for like-sized schools. It's also a good preview of what a Finals-day format will be like for Conference and State in November. Thanks in advance to everyone who's volunteering at this meet to make it a success!
On Saturday after practice we sat down for a few minutes to discuss some issues that have been popping up: timeliness, a sense of urgency, and expectations for outside activities on days when someone is absent from practice. Parents, if your daughter hasn't already mentioned it, these talking points might be a good thing to discuss!

Tuesday 9.22
- Meet HOME vs. East Grand Rapids and Grandville
- Athletes On-deck @ 5:15pm for devotions.
- Warm Up @ 5:30pm. Meet Start @ 6:30pm.
- Due to the number of teams and athletes, diving will run simultaneously with swimming, starting after the 200 Medley Relay.
Saturday 9.26
- Division 3 Invitational @ HOME.
- Times
- Athletes on-deck @ 9:50am for Devotions.
- Warm Up @ 10:00am. Meet Start @ 12:00pm.
- Estimated Finish @ 4:00pm (should be the absolute latest it would go).
- Format
- A 10-team Invitational with all Division 3 teams.
- Each team is limited to 3 entries per relay and 4 entries per individual event. As this is much more limited than a normal dual meet, I will do my best to get people at least 2+ swims while maintaining our fastest possible lineup.
- The meet is straight-seeded by time.
- The top 16 overall score in each event, regardless of heat. A and B relays can score.
- Awards will be handed out during the meet to the Top 3 for each relay and Top 8 for each individual event.
- Divers will complete an 11-dive meet that will run simultaneously with swimming.
