NEWS & NOTES
Notes from Paton
Well done everyone on the meet last weekend (June 26-28)!
Our next meet is the Cal State Games held at Coggan! July 18. If you haven't already entered with me, you can still enter online up until July 6th.
Meet entries for Escondido Swim Club’s AB meet are due Monday, July 13th.

We're adding a new Novice time slot!!!
Due to the rapid growth of our Novice group (a great thing!), I’d like to add another time slot for our Novice swimmers. It will impact the two upper levels, but they can handle it.
The new time slot will still be on Monday and Wednesday. It will start at 4:30 and run until 5pm. By adding another session for Novice swimmers, we can have a better coach to swimmer ratio and allow for more individual attention.
So, we will have one group swim from 4-4:30 and then another group will swim from 4:30-5 (this is the new time slot) both groups on Monday and Wednesday. Both groups still come at the same time on Friday, 4-5.
This will begin this Monday, June 29th.
In order to balance the two Novice groups, swimmers will be assigned to one group or the other. We want to avoid switching back and forth for consistency of the program. We are looking to have 15-20 swimmers in each group with our two coaches.
Please let me know if you’re interested in moving to this time slot.
Thanks!
Paton

Cal State Games are coming to our pool!!!
The Cal State Games are being held at our pool! Entries are due to me on or before Monday, June 29th. Entry fee is $30, please make checks payable to WSST. Event limit of 4 events. I’ll put everything together and send in the Hytek file.
There are no time standards associated with this meet, so it’s a great chance for our entire team to compete in a long course format!
The meet has been changed to one day only. That will make it a long day. Plan accordingly.
The check in for tshirts as well as the opening ceremonies are not something that we’ve organized as a team. If there’s a parent that wants to take on that task, let me know. It’s a fun experience, but makes for a long night just before an early morning.
Again…process your entries through Paton, not online. If you do end up doing it online, remember that our team name is Wind N Sea Swim Team and our club code is WSST – SI.
Below is the meet information:

2009 Swimming is Youth only, but 2010 will include Open & Masters

Janet Evans Invitational
I’m just getting back from a great weekend of meets! Michael Cohn and family braved the Memorial Day weekend traffic to travel up to Irvine to compete in the Janet Evans Invitational. What a great experience! Several collegiate teams were in attendance as well as many Olympians! Fun to watch the best in the world compete! And Michael was in the water with them! On Saturday, Michael competed in the 200 free and 200 back. He was just off of best times in both events finishing 86th in the free and 54th in the back. Today was just the 100 free. Michael dropped over ½ second to earn his first long course Sectional Championship time. Sectionals are in Clovis this July. The time also was another Zone Championship time for Michael, giving him 4 and an automatic spot for the Zone team competing in Hawaii this August. The 100 Free is also a team record.

High School CIF Championships
While we were in Irvine, the High School CIF Championships were being held here in San Diego. Two of our swimmers, Troy Le Loup and Tyler Woods represented La Jolla High School at the meet. Congratulations to them and the La Jolla boys team! CIF Champions! Their 400 free relay also earned All-American Automatic times, ranking them amongst the best in the nation!
High school results are on the SI website.
