Weekly Update - Sunday, January 9, 2022
Hello MAST Families,
Thanks to all the parents who took time from their busy lives to help out this past weekend at the Marlins "Holiday Wrap-Up" meet. As is typical of mid-season swim meet we had mixed results. Competition is the most specific form of training and every race is a learning opportunity.
This past weekend there were some swimmers recording a number of best times, which is always exciting. There were others who had huge drops back in December and were not as fast this week, but they still got benefits from racing. Throughout the meet all MAST swimmers were giving their best efforts and swimming smart; it is clear that our swimmers are learning a lot... and continuing to learn. It is exciting to see the continuing development of the MAST swimmers. We are looking forward to continuing improvement as we move toward championship meets.
1) Upcoming scheduled meets.
Information for the CAC Sprint meet and the TYR Invitational are on the events page. Today is the last chance to commit to the TYR meet. The High School Championship meets are coming up with league meets then the Sectional - District and State Championship series coming up in February.
The Ohio LSC Championships are coming up starting with the Southwest Ohio Regional Championship for all swimmers February 17 - 20 (the same weekend of the high school district championships).
The MAKO Senior Meet is scheduled for the March 4-6 weekend (This is a good meet for high school swimmers who do not advance to the High School State Championship, but even those who do make it to state may want to consider racing other events in the Senior Meet). The Ohio LSC Championship meet is scheduled for March 11-13 but the location has not been finalized.
The final meet of the short course season is the USAS Sectional Championship at IUPUI. This meet has national level time standards. Currently we have only two swimmers with Sectional Cuts but hope to add a few more by the end of the season.
2) Covid surge
As we all know there is an increase in Covid (Omicron and others) throughout the entire world and the Milford Area is no exception. One cannot help but be confused by the information available so it seems that the best path forward remains uncertain.
From the swim team perspective, the best we can do is ask every family to carefully monitor the health status of all family members and consult your family health care professional for the best answers to your covid questions.
Going forward, my advice as a swim coach regarding whether or not to attend practice is "If it doubt, keep them out."
3) Practice Schedule
We will continue to offer practices for all swimmers until the Age Group Championship (J.O.) March 11-13 and every swimmer is encouraged to attend whether qualified for the J.O. meet or not.
