There were are a lot of fast swims throughout the morning sessions but a great improvement from heats to finals. Congratulations to all the swimmers that made it the finals and the ones that finished in the Top 3 of there events!
Seeing the adjustments made in practices being carried over into races, is a sign of progression and being on the right path. Other things like, bouncing back on a next swim when the previous one didn't go as planned. The ability to be in the moment and not let the past affect you. Having the fortitude to carry on was great to see. The coaches are very proud of the effort day in and day out. Really good job LASC!
