After getting started training on campus after a short break at home, the team has put in a great amount of work this winter training camp. The time on campus together has definitely made the group a lot closer. Out of the pool we had fun eating meals together, competing at bowling and performing at the talent show, demonstrating that swimming isn't the only thing we are good at.
In the pool, it is awesome to see everyone doing well in the main sets and putting forth their best efforts during practice. It is evident that everyone is gearing up for Patriots, getting physically and mentally prepared as the season comes to a close. This past weekend against Army we put up a very good fight and swam very well. Unfortunately, we came up 14 points short of a win, but I am confident that we will swim even better at Patriots. We have a very good team that has trained hard all year and I am confident it will pay off when we taper and suit up.
I'm very excited to see where this hard work will put us in the coming few weeks against Lehigh, UConn and finally at Patriot League Championships.
