Congratulations to all IST swimmers and families for a fantastic weekend of fast swimming. IST swimmers placed 6th out of 127 teams last weekend at the Northwest Age Group Sectional swim meet. 127 teams as well as 8 unattached teams from Hawaii, Alaska, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming traveled to compete at the aquatic center in Federal Way. The stage was set and IST delivered.
The meet was long and exhausting
but IST swimmers, parents and coaches persevered through some stiff
competition and delivered some stellar performances. As a
staff we are always excited to see our swimmers compete at such a high
level and we couldn’t be more proud of the effort our swimmers
exemplified as well as the results our swimmers achieved this past
weekend. Needless to say the meet was fast; very fast. Not only did our swimmers step up in competition but IST swimmers also stepped up as a swimming family. The team cheering and camaraderie was outstanding! There wasn’t a race go by that IST didn’t have a cheering section. As coaches we love that! It was awesome to see so many of our athletes actually take pride in not only their own swims but also swims of their teammates. IST is a one of a kind team and that was truly evident this weekend. IST as a team sent 46 swimmers to the meet and many of them swam in relays only. IST
staff is very proud to see so many swimmers come and join in our relays
to compete as a family and compete well in supporting our entire team. Contributions
from our 8 & unders all the way through our 18 year olds made this
a truly amazing meet for all IST family involved. Congrats to everybody again on a wonderful weekend.
IST swimmers had 3 individual swimmers win 6 events, 2 relay winners, 18 swimmers placed in the top 8 in both individual events and relays. IST swimmers broke 2 PNS records, 14 IST records, 2 Northwest Age Group Meet records, in addition to earning 6 individual National Reportable times as well as 3 Relay National Reportable times. IST swimmers also achieved 7 new Senior Sectional Standards as well as one Junior National Standard.
