“We are very excited to attend this meet and face some great competition. It will be an amazing experience for our swimmers and prepare them to move forward in the season. To get a little rest and swim fast at this point of the season is always important and it will be a great indicator for where we are now, and what we need to do moving forward into the second half of the season.”
