Following 5 and 6 consecutive district championships for the boys and girls teams, respectively, swim must continue this winning legacy.

The main goals of the teams are breaking their records from last year.

“The girls team is looking to break their previous record in the 200 medley relay and break the district record,” Doyle said.

Continuing the winning streak is also crucial to the teams goals.

“ The team’s goal is to win in the girls and boys division as well as overall,” senior captain Mason Klein said.  “We have a history of winning this meet so our goal is to continue that legacy. “

For head swimming coach Julia Brunner, the goals are more simple: “Win first place as a team, and every relay, and most individual events”

To reach these goals, the coaches have been changing workouts leading up to districts. 

“ We’re tapering this week, workouts are a little easier to get some rest in, and (we are doing) less volume of yardage,” Brunner said

The coaches have also been preparing themselves for the meet ahead of time.

“Personally, I’ve been reviewing the psych sheet and checking where we are at and where we are standing right now and really just trying to get mentally prepared,” Brunner said.

For upperclassmen, this meet is very different due to it being at the end of the season. 

“This districts feels much different than years past because it’s my last one,” Klein said.  “Also, I am swimming events that I would have usually not swam at this meet, so it will be interesting so see how they go.”

New coaches have also changed the nature of the meet. 

“In addition to that, being on our third coach since I was a freshman makes this meet feel very different. “

“Also, the number of people who advance to the regional meet has varied over the years,” Klein said.

But for many seniors, not advancing can mean the end of swimming forever. 

“This could potentially be my very last meet, but hopefully I’ll advance,” Klein said.
