The first B meet of the 2016 season got off to an exciting start at Mount Vernon Park, as the Gators hosted the Waynewood Dolphins. Dozens of Gator swimmers set personal bests on Monday night, led by 5-year-old Caroline Watters dropping 24.36 in the girls 8-and-under 25 free. Charlie Bruce’s drop of 18.82 in the 9-10 boys’ 50 meter breaststroke and Vera Stevenson’s drop of 14.35 in the girls’ 8-and-under backstroke were also quite remarkable. Charlie Bruce also took 6.88 seconds off his previous best in the freestyle!
Those with drops of over 5 seconds also included Jackson
Hannah (-7.65 in boys 11-12 free), Sofia-Marie Khahil (-8.11 in girls 11-12
free and -5.32 in the backstroke!), Andrew Sabo (-6.72 in boys’ 8-under back),
Grant Cedoz (-6.22 in boys’ 8-under back), and Jack Alonza (-5.97 in boys’ 9-10
breast).
Others who improved their time by at least two seconds
included Peter Hannah, Karly Whitehead, Lizzie Grubbs, Sabine O’Shea, Hayden
Ward, Nora Hixson, Catie Hicks, Sofia Bryant, Abby Tynan, Edward Stone, Sam
Bruce, Monica Morales, Abigail Leach, Elizabeth Delaune, Karly Whitehead, Shaan
Nagda, Caroline Baker, and Ellie Cullo.
Hollin Hills visits MVP next Monday, June 27th,
for the 2nd B meet of the season.
