WCM took a smaller team of 21 swimmers this year to Nationals in
Atlanta, but that did not stop us! We still managed to finish third
out of 165 teams in the Club Division with 548.5 points.
Susan Strong started us off with a
win on day one in the 1000 – it was a great swim and set the
tone for what was to come. We had five others swimmers win National
Championships. On day two Lisa Ward and Roque Santos won their 400
IM’s and Roque won his 50 breaststroke. He followed that up
with wins on day three in the 100 breast and 200 IM.
The final day… the final
event of the day and of the meet – the 200 Breaststroke
turned out to be the event of the meet for WCM. Debbie came from
behind to win the Women’s 40-44, and then Peter Guadagni had
an exciting race winning his first National Championship. It was
fun to watch! Pat Duggan followed with a great race – some
tremendous pulldowns – and a win in his race. Roque finished
up the meet with a win in his 200 breast as well!
