The meet went well, and it was a good first meet overall for the team. We have a lot we can fix, but we are all so excited for the rest of the season, says Ashlin Cannella (24). Alongside several teammates, Cannella competed in the 400 meter free relay. The times of the individual relay teams were displayed on the scoreboard overhead.

I like being on the swim team because it is an easy way to stay in shape. I have to go to morning practice this year, and although its hard to wake up, I feel so good and have a productive day, says Bahr who has been a member of the swim team since her freshman year.

A former cheerleader, Link has always enjoyed tumbling. However, last fall, she realized her body could no longer take the jarring movement.

As the months went on, I grew a love for the sport that I have never felt before, says Link.
