November 2008 ~ Spectacular Swims at Spooktacular

Dane Neves, 10, Swimmer of the Month

Dane Neves, with his arm raised, is the AquaSol Swimmer of the Month for October, 2008. He's cheering on his teammates as they warm up before a cold November meet.

The Spooktacular Invitational is a favorite for AquaSol swimmers. Keeping the Halloween theme, heat winners are given candy from the timers at each lane.

AquaSol had 38 swimmers achieve 108 best times and 24 new time standards as the year-round squad took sixth out of 21 teams. Many trained with AquaSol during the fall clinic.
“Our fall clinic was very successful,” AquaSol coach Steve Skidmore said. “Most of the swimmers and their parents enjoy the stroke work and new skills that are taught. We’re here to provide our swim community with the opportunity to improve. We feel our program can help anyone reach their full potential.”

Clinic swimmers competing were Rose Christ-eson, Marissa Garcia, Alexandra Nisson, Jac-queline Nisson, Spencer Nisson, Gabrielle Ava-llone, Quinn Beattie, Mikaela Fuller, Kylie Wiesner, Shannon Ousley, Wesley Higgins and Andrew Hull.

Swimmer of the Month honors went to Dane Neves, 10, who improved in seven of his eight races and had four new time standards.

“Dane has a real good attitude and is very willing to work hard,” Skidmore said. “His efforts and attitude paid off for him at the meet.”

Also having outstanding swims and earning new time standards were the following year-round AquaSol swimmers: David Mertz, Molly Covington, Caroline Mertz, Shane Marshall, Kyle Covington, Emily Thompson, Travis Marshall, Grady Lynch, Kirstie Sanew, Coleman Goode and Daniel Levine.
