Update 1 November 2015

Hello!

First, I want to say GREAT JOB to everyone that swam at the district meet and the last chance invitational yesterday. The last couple of weeks are my favorite time of the season because I see so many of you reaching your goals after putting in a lot of hard work throughout the season with having such wonderful attitudes. I look forward to watching those that qualified for states this next weekend represent Pinnacle in the best possible way, as a great athlete and a person of character!

Practice this week for all state swimmers:

Monday - Wednesday: 4-5 pm 

Thursday: 5-6 pm ALL athletes attending state MUST be at this practice. We will do a meet warm up and practice relay starts. We will also be going over details for the weekend. I can't wait :)
**If you're not swimming at state, you are still more than welcome to join us for a good workout!

Entries for the State Championships are due at 5:00 pm tonight. Afterward the AIA will be working on the final psych sheet. I will send out a final list of those swimmers that will be attending state on Friday and Saturday as soon as I get it!

State swimmers will be released from class at 11:00 am on Friday. ONLY those athletes are allowed on the bus. We encourage all swimmers to come and cheer on their fellow teammates in the stands (not allowed on deck without a pass). The meet is at Skyline High School (845 S Crismon Rd, Mesa, AZ 85208). Their is a $5 fee to get in (for students with ID) and $10 for non-students. The meet will start at 2:30 pm on both Friday (prelims) and Saturday (finals, top 16 in each event).

Boosters has organized a way for state swimmers to order a Jimmy John's lunch on Friday. It will be delivered at 11:00 am (when you get out of class). We will leave school at 11:30 am so that you have time to eat that lunch. You are welcome to brown bag if you wish (but make sure it is healthy and substantial!) ONLY STATE swimmers are welcome to order. PLEASE  DO NOT ORDER DRINKS! Lastly, be sure to put YOUR NAME on the order where it says "who wants it?". Here is the link where you can order:
