Swim Meet Results

We field a lot of inquiries about the swim meet results, and I can never remember all the details on the phone, so here it is:

• Rudy relay:  3rd place, 3:06.59
• Brady relay: 1st place, 1:41.72.  This was a medley relay and Brady swam with the A team.  He was the first leg, swimming the backstroke, and put his team in a strong second place position for the remaining legs.
• Brady 25 free: 2nd place, 20.53.  This was his best finish by almost 5 full seconds! 
• Rudy 25 free:  10th, 43.72.  Everyone in the stands thought Rudy was flying through the water; we couldn't believe that his time actually dropped 2 seconds.
• Brady 25 back:  4th, 26.97. 
• Rudy 25 back:  7th , 40.37.  Again, he looked great but his time didn't improve.  Maybe they stretched the pool out for him this week or something...
• Brady 50 free:  He dropped his time from 1:05.22 to 53.63.  He even did a flip turn!  Unfortunately, having only practiced those flip turns at one practice, he pulled it too early and missed the wall.  He was crushed to have a DQ. :(

Update:  The league just posted the top 50 scores through the third week of competition. 

• Rudy is 41st in backstroke, with his best time of 39.22!
• Brady is 33rd for the 25 backstroke, with his best time of 26.81.  His freestyle time for the fourth week puts him right around 19th place for his age group.  And, except for his DQ, he'd be around 20th place for the 50 freestyle as well!
