Lightning Swims Preceed Lightning Strikes Monday vs. Mansion House

This article was written by Lauren Cardillo.

Neither humidity, nor heat nor a really slow pool stopped the MVP B meet against
Mansion House this past Monday. Rather, it  was the thunder that cut off the running of
Individual Medley heats.
Lily Palmerino tells her teammate that it is much
better to have a Gator cap with your name on it
so your parents and bloggers know who you are!


Plenty of races made it in before the booming started. Taking significant time off their personal bests were: Connor Bruce, Cassandra Burdick, Maximilian Ciovacco, Mia Colaizzi, Lily Palmerino, Carl Questad, Nicholas Swetz, Lily Terpinas, Isabelle Thornburg, Elena Van Damme, and Andrei Zaitsev.

Taylor: "Did you hear the latest? 
Lily T: There's a major t-storm coming!"

Swimmers dipping their toes in the pool for the first time were: Ethan Brunton, Anika Degen, Owen Harrison, Michael Ienzi, and Daniel Terpinas.

James Piland shows that good Gator
sportsmanship starts at a young age.


Both Cullo girls had a strong meet.  This is one of them!

Congratulations to all the swimmers. Last B meet of the season is this coming Monday when
Riverside Gardens visits the Gator swamp.
Bobby Kelly: a Gator going strong!
