"It was fun getting to watch all of our new swimmers compete, most of them for the first time and finishing with big smiles on their faces," RSC coach Megan Cihla said.
Seventeen swimmers new to RSC competed at this meet.

"The returning swimmers amazed me throughout the meet, every returning swimmer had at least one personal best and most of them had personal bests in everything they swam," Cihla added.
