Hi Coach Scott :) I don't know if you remember me but you were one of my coaches at the Cal U Summer Swim Camp for the past two years. You wrote me a note to give to my coach telling him that I needed to swim breast stroke. Well, I just finished swimming my last high school swim meet which was the West Virginia State Meet. I wanted to tell you that I finished 14th in the 100 Breast Stroke! :) I thought it was a great accomplishment for not swimming year round and I wanted to tell you that it all happened because of you. You giving me the confidence in my stroke to approach my coach and say that I believe that I can make it to states allowed me to show him and everyone what I could do. Also just to let you know I finished 12th in the 100 freestyle, my medley relay finished 3rd (I swam the breast leg), and my 400 free relay finished 5th. Overall in the girls division my school finished 5th with only four girls swimming at states! I was very proud of myself and my team for making it to states and I wanted to share my accomplishment with you. :) I hope you are having a successful swimming year!
