A true competitor gets the most joy out of the most difficult circumstances.
The real competitors love a tough situation -
that is when they focus better and function better.

D3 Invitational @ Holland Aquatic Center
- Times
- Athletes in family locker room @ 11: 15 am for Devotions.
- Warm Up @ 11:30am. Meet Start @ 1pm.
- Doors open for spectators @ 12pm
- Estimated Finish @ 4:30/5pm (should be the absolute latest it would go).
- Format
- A 12-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 1+ swim 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.
