Riptide Swim Meet

Bella had her first swim meet and loved it!  She was the youngest (6) on both teams, and had to swim with 8 and unders which included Morgan.  They both swam 25 meters of each stroke against the Iwakuni team.  Morgan came in first in all four events (including beating all the boys times!).  Ribbons were given for the first 3 places, and there were two heats of the events.  Bella is fast and got a 3rd in fly, 3rd in freestyle and 2nd place in backstroke. 

There was so much cheering, I thought for sure the girls would lose their voices.  They had a blast and though Iwakui's team had 3 times the swimmers our team narrowly won.

Great experience and no DQ's!  Bella's two hand touches for fly and breast stroke, and staying on her back the entire time were perfect.  Both girls also have wonderful dives - Jeff's been working with them on that.
