Event Details/Results:
State Meet: The relay doc is up! This is for MAC information and eyes only. The doc, in the link provided, is for all MAC State Meet swimmers to fill out their relay availability and the events they plan to swim at the State Meet. This doc is extremely important for the coaches when it is time to organize relays. All relays are planned/devised before the State Meet from this form! This doc is also great to see what other swimmers in your age group are swimming if you need help deciding on events and where you can score points. Here’s the link:

On a Personal Note: Thanks to everyone for making the Milford Meltdown such a huge success this year! A special Thank You goes our to coach Kris Goodrich for all the hard work she has put in to planning, organizing, and running this meet. I would also like to help all of the volunteers: the timers, the Milford High School girls swim team (for timing and encouraging and cheering for all the swimmers), the counters, the officials, Jim Izzi, Maria Veen, Melissa Richardson, Elaine, and all of our team members that supplied food for the day. This meet could not have happened or gone as smoothly without the help of this remarkable team and its coaches.
The Milford Meltdown saw world records set, state records set, personal best swims, and enormous improvements and accomplishments from swimmers on this team! All of us at the meet also had the privilege of seeing Barb Hertz and gifting her with a signed shirt with words of love and encouragement to help remind her of her strength during her battle against cancer. We are MAC Strong and we are all with her during this difficult time!
If you haven’t gotten a chance, we also have a shirt for Irene Pawley-Kennedy at the pool. So please make sure you take a second before or after practice and sign that shirt!
4 Weeks to State
