DCST Competes in Speedo Invitational
The Kishwaukee YMCA/Dekalb County Swim Team traveled to Aurora for a three-day invitational hosted by the Academy Bullets. We had 12 of our 13 swimmers who competed in the meet swim a career best time. It was a meet against some very tough competition where 42 of our 92 swims were career best times for an average of 46% for the meet.
After each meet, the coaching staff picks two swimmers, one girl and one boy, as the “Big Dogs” of the meet. Big Dogs are not only selected on their performance in the meet, but the coaches also take into consideration the swimmer’s practice attendance, work ethic, team spirit and sportsmanship. For this meet, Camila Palacios, age 12, and Will Dukes, age 12, were selected as Big Dogs of the meet.
