Gator Turkey Trot Meet Report

Gator Swim Club

Turkey Trot, November 10th – 12th

@ Seekonk High school

 

Our Maine Gators had a great warm up meet for the championship meets coming up in December at Seekonk, Mass last weekend. Our swimmers raced very well, some establishing new personal best times, as well as New England Championship meet qualifying times that will be coming up the second half of the season.

Our swimmers also had the opportunity to hang out and make new friends with our Gator teammates from the Boston and Seekonk branches!

Congratulations to first time meet competitors Emma Jaffe, Penelope Schofield, and Naomi Small from Osprey Competitive for  traveling all the way to Seekonk to compete in their first Gator swim meet! Special thanks and recognition also to Luca Montague and Charlotte Donaldson Michaelis for taking these new swimmers under their wing during warm ups and mentoring them and givng them confidence for their races!
