Shout out to a few of the girls for trying some new events. Lucy Davis tried two new races including the 200 IM and the 100 Fly. These are some pretty tough races and she did both in one night! Zoe Zei tried the 200 Freestyle, and she ended up loving it. And lastly, the birthday girl, Atreya Wilson, tried the 500 Freestyle. We are looking forward to seeing these girls try a few more new events this season!
The Whippets are in Elkhorn for the Elkhorn Invite on Saturday September 9. We hope to see you all there!
