We are going to put some Mustangs on the PODIUM this year!! (Top 3 - Medals). I hope you'll join the fun - it's going to be an awesome week and Swimming will be in the spotlight.

----------------------------------------------------

A couple of quick notes:

The Oneale's are bringing snacks for Friday and Saturday (THANK YOU!!!) Swimmers - brings chairs to sit in or soft blankets. Sitting on concrete isn't good for you.

Good luck to our Mustang Swimmers - I can't wait to see you have a big week!!

John
