Hi Killer Whales!

How about that Meet? We were on the edge of our seats the whole time! The back-and-forth score was so close but in the end, we’re sad to say that the Apex Breakers were able to swim away with a 28-point lead for a total score of: Breakers 271, Killer Whales 243. Our Killer Whales fought well though and made them work hard for that score.

Limit of 3 individual events at Sunset Ridge meet on 7/19

We want to thank you all for bearing with us through the drawn-out meet. Please understand that even as the "Home team”, there are moving parts beyond our control that did not allow us to run the meet as efficiently as we all would have liked. Thank you all for your patience this year as our league implements and adjusts to new changes.

For next week's meet against Sunset Ridge, we hope to end the meet earlier. With this goal in mind, both teams are limiting all swimmers to a maximum of 3 individual events at the 7/19 Meet in hopes of helping keep it to a more reasonable amount of time. If you already signed your swimmer up to swim 4 individual events for Tuesday's meet, please go back to the meet sign-up and select a maximum of 3 individual events for each swimmer.

Here are our records for this week!
