YMCA NY State Championships Day 1

Greetings from Buffalo!
After 6 months of training the Bay View Tigers are ready for States.  I love this time of the year.  Tapering is an art form among Swimming coaches.  Every season, every team is different but a good taper is like a chefs secret ingredient list to his award winning dish.  We are ready and I can't wait for this evening's Prelim session.  Our 13 and 14 Boys and Girls will swim the 500 free and the 200 IM.

Swimming at the ECC pool brings back so many memories of great meets as a High School coach and as the coach at GCC.  Incredible swims each with it's own story of how it came to be.  Championships won and Championships missed.

It is going to be an exciting and incredible weekend.

"Confidence brings results" I told the kids last night, I am so proud of all of them.  They have done everything they needed to get ready for this meet.

Now with a few jitters and a lot of confidence it is time to Swim Smart!

Tiger Pride!
