Saturday, September 17th, was spent at the pool for 15 area public high school swim teams participating in the 2nd annual Frank Holleman Invitational. There were many great swims to turn one's head. Congratulations to all teams, coaches, volunteers, and families for their participation. Nease Swim and Dive was the host of the event, both the boys and girls team finished in second place. Collectively our Nease Swim and Dive team scored the greatest amounts of points. Diver Aaron Storlie gained a first place ranking with 244.50 points Over 400 non-perishable food items were also collected at the meet to help support the Homeless Coalition of St. Johns County. Coach Frank Holleman is a popular legend in the swimming world coaching young athletes on how to perform their best in swimming.

Girls Cross Country

The Nease Girls Cross Country team competed in two races this past weekend- one in Cary, NC, at the Adidas XC Challenge, and the other at Bartram Trail High School. The team racing in NC ran against national competition. All JV team athletes produced new personal records, and several members of the varsity team also recorded new personal best times. The coaches were impressed with how the team ran the course, which presented its challenges. These experiences allow us to grow as individuals and as a team. We appreciate those families that traveled to NC to support the teams. We had seven additional JV girls run at the Bartram High School - Bale 'n Trail Meet. Our team supported each other throughout the race, with many of them finishing within two minutes of each other.

Boys Cross Country

The Nease Boys Cross Country competed against national competition in Cary, NC. The boys varsity finished 23^rd out of 80 teams as they competed on an extremely hilly course. They continued to show improvement as all 9 JV runners set a new personal best time and 7 of the Varsity runners set new personal records.
