PS: In writing this message, I'm trying to include highlights from every swimmer. I'm certain I've missed some, though, so I apologize in advance. In the meantime, please manage your person race results at www.mgmswimteam.org !

Special Note: Now that we've broken all these records, I'm back to updating our team stats, which is both cool, and a tedious pain. Hopefully, you'll be able to help out by keeping track of your own times with our new Online Racing Stats feature that lets you post your own times whenever you want. In fact, if you want to, you could track every race result you've ever posted. (Yes, even the unsanctioned ones.) Click here to see a video about this new feature and give it a shot. I've also put together another instructional video for you if you need help. You can see that one here. This is 'Beta' grade software, so let me know if you run into any bugs. I'll try to address them as soon as possible.

Also...The deadline for registering for State is April 18th. I've posted a direct link the registration page from our site under upcoming meets.
