Other standouts include
Kinley Mabie for improving her score by 27 points since the beginning of the season and learning 2 new dives this week!
Katherine Roberts successfully competed a double somersault for the first time and we are beginning to be known as the reverse team as we have more diving competing a reverse dive than any other team in the league! Almost every diver on the team had their highest score of the season which is a great precursor to finishing the season very well at the ALL-CITY Diving Championships next week on Monday and Tuesday.
A big thank you to our home meet workers who ran a very efficient meet.
Kristen Mabie and
Kristine Buss ran the computer scoring while
Patrick Howe did the announcing,
Chris Haas and
Kim Hart did awards and
Kathy Howe stepped in and did a great job judging several age groups! There were also numerous parents who helps set up and tear down the meet which helped us get out before the storm hit. Thank you everyone for your help.
