I wasn't able to go to this meet because I was working at the polls for voting yesterday but Steve went and because it was at Mt. Crest in Hyrum, Heather and Clint were able to go,too. Austin swam the 100 Freestyle. He was in lane 2 on the board below.
So, he came in 3rd in his heat and beat his previous time (done at a mock meet during practice) by 12 seconds which is fantastic!
Steve took these pictures so I am not sure what race this is but he said Austin is in Lane 2 which is the one just above the boys heads.
He is in lane two here also. As you can see his dive was pretty bad. Steve said it was pretty funny but not the worst of the day. Sometimes you just kind of slip off those platforms! Don't worry, Austin laughed about it,too. He is 2nd from the bottom in the next picture getting ready to dive in.
He also swam in the 50 Freestyle again and had a time of 27.98 seconds which beat his last time by about 1 second. He was in the Freestyle relay,too but coach put him in with the C team and while Austin did well, Steve said that his team members were not so good. Austin was anchor and tried valiantly to catch them up passing a few others but still coming in 4th in their heat. We head down to St. George this weekend for a meet down there so more pics to come!

I agree about the relay team. Austin did awesome, but the rest of the team...yikes. Ah well, though :) I wish we could come to the St. George swim meet! They really are a lot of fun to watch :)
