Hello MAST Families,                                                                                                              Friday, July 27, 2022
 
Here is a very brief weekly update for the week of July 25 – 31, 2022. 
 
Evan Fentress will be representing MAST on the National stage after qualifying for the USA Swimming Junior Nationals in Irvine, CA. We will be in California all week so there will not be an update on Sunday, July 31.
 
USAS Swimming ZONE Championships: We are also thrilled that two MAST swimmers (Emmett Fentress and Jake Nerl) will be representing Team Ohio in the “Super Zone” meet August 3 – 7 in Elkhart, IN. 
 
The Ohio Swimming Junior Olympics at Miami University was very successful for MAST.  We had 11 swimmers participate
 
The highlight of the meet for MAST had to be when Emmett won the 200 Butterfly out of lane 1 with a two second improvement over his previous best time (and a ten second improvement over his morning qualifying time), he also placed second in the 100 Butterfly with a PB and his first 100 FLY long course under 1:00.00.
 
MAST JO Championship Qualifiers:  Max Busmeyer (10), Gavin Sheehan (10), Dylan Chapman (12), Tanner Besse (12), Kristen Bruce (13), Paxton Merz (14), Jonah Otten(14), Ben Spence (14),  Landon Crum (14), Jake Nerl (14) and Emmett Fentress (14).
 
Summer Break time for Swimming:  No MAST Practices for a couple weeks.  We will get Fall Preseason news and practice schedules out to everyone next week. 
 
Recruit new swimmers for MAST:  If you know of any swimmers who may be interested in joining MAST please have them contact any of the Coaches.  We are scheduling New Swimmer Evaluations for the last couple weeks of August and will have a Sign-Up Genius available soon through the MAST website.
 
Have a terrific week – See you in August,
 
Monty
