WEEKLY UPDATE - Sunday, November 19, 2023

Monty Hopkins
Hello MAST Families,                                                                                                            W/U #11 / 2023-1119
 
WTRC MEET ENTRIES
 
Entries for the WTRC meet have been sent. 
 
Many meet hosts are limiting entries to a meet cap, so we are trying to send our entries to all meets as soon as the meet host begins accepting entries. 
 
This meet cap policy has been in place for some time at the national meet level for some time but has only recently filtered down to local USAS meets. 
 
Please be advised that the entry commitment deadlines have been set for the following meets.
 
November 26              MAKOS Holiday Spirit Invitational
December 4                CAC Distance Meet
December 13              CLIPPERS Mid-Winter Classic
 
Other deadlines will be set as soon as we receive the meet information.
 
PRACTICE SCHEDULE THIS WEEK
 
Sincerest apologies to those who are still in school this week and are unable to attend all practice sessions.  We try to maximize the opportunities that Milford Schools make available to MAST and build our schedule around that pool time.  The schedule for December will be out soon.
 
MILFORD HIGH SCHOOL SWIMMING
 
Milford high school has their Intra-Squad meet on Monday morning.  If you want to watch a high school meet and see how our MAST swimmers are doing at the start of the season in high school format, the meet is scheduled for 7:00 – 11:00 am (I assume that the meet will start around 8:00 am).  MAST swimmers on the Milford High School team should also attend MAST practice on Monday – See you there!

"Gratitude is what separates a challenge, or a difficult thing you have to do, from an opportunity, or something you get to do.
Find something to be grateful about, whether it’s related to swimming or not.”    -Kristen Romano
