SWIMMERS SUCCEED AT DISTRICT
by envisionfilmvideo.com on Jan.26, 2011, under Swimming and Diving
The Clark Cougars endured a very long day on Saturday January 22nd and succeeded in bringing home a lot of top places! From warm-ups that began at 7:30 am until the last finals race, which began at 8:25 pm, Clark held strong with their eyes on the prize.
The Clark women’s squad, comprised of only 12 members, combined sheer guts, persistence and stamina to bring home the District 3rd place award.
Clark men, who outnumber the women 2:1, had depth in all strokes and races but faced an onslaught of very talented O’Connor, Marshall and brandies men. The Men’s squad left the pool that night with a well earned 2nd place District 27-5A trophy.
Top finalists from Districts are back in the water this week preparing for UIL Region VII-5A on Feb. 4th and 5th at the Josh Davis Natatorium. Prelims begin at 9:30am on Friday the 4th and Finals begin at 9:30am on Saturday the 5th.
