We started off a little up and down. But then things started to come together. This group is really team oriented and they knew what they needed to do.
saying strength year
I've been saying all year that our strength is in the relays.
great highlight last max
That was a highlight for our team. It was great to see Max get in there on his last dive.
beat fastest low puts record swim team time tough
That was just an unbelievable swim for these guys. They beat a very tough team record and getting All-American consideration is really an honor. I don't know if our time is going to be low enough to make it, but it still puts us up there with some of the fastest times in the nation.
sitting spot super
We're sitting in a super spot for tomorrow.
definitely possible
It's definitely possible this year. This is one of our deepest, if not our deepest, teams.
almost best coming couple far few good moved ready score spots swims
We had a pretty good day. Almost all of the spots where we were seeded are coming back and we even moved up a couple of spots in a few races. Prelims is always an up and down day, and we had some up and down swims as far as best times go. But we're ready to score some points.

That award just shows you how hard this team worked this year.

The competition was outstanding this year. I'm so proud of what these guys did.
