From March 11-14, nine of our swimmers traveled to Liberty University for the Virginia Swiming Short Course Age Group Championships.  Age Group Championships was a split meet this year with half of the State swimming at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA and the other half swimming at the Jeff Rouse Center in Stafford, VA.  We had 9 swimmers swim in 41 events at the Liberty location.

Of the 41 races, there were 27 best times (66%).  There were several new AAA and AA time cuts achieved.  Those swims and swimmers are called out below.  Well done, everyone!  

Hardware Recap: Our kids placed Top 16 in the State for 21 of the 41 events swam!  We also had 3 swims in the Top 8 in the State.  Here is a special shout out to all of those swims that made finals!  Awesome Job -- Go Gators!
