Battling BullFrog - The Latest News!
May 22nd
This first week of practice is over and turned into a popsicle. The most exciting news is that we have A LOT of new families joining the team this year. We hope that your kids find this fun and rewarding and that they find success in THEIR personal goal this season (whether that is jumping off the block in one meet or setting several new personal best records). We are also excited to have the new parents. It has been great to meet each of you and have a chance to talk. We look forward to a fun season!
ASST COACHES: We have some amazing older swimmers that are helping out our young tadpoles each day at practice. These guys are in the freezing water, dedicating their time serving as leaders for our team. I am positive these swimmers along with Coach Joji will set the tone for our season. Trust us.... they are doing this for the leadership and the mentoring of the younger swimmers. I can promise they ARE NOT doing this for the money. Please say thank you to these guys when you see them at practice and meets. A highlight for me this season has been meeting these young men and women. I am surprised by the manners, attitude, and leadership these people have shown m
- Ben Hiles - Senior Graduating from Marist

WEBSITE: our new team website is fantastic and we owe a tremendous thanks to Jeff Budd. The link is below as well as login and ID. Store this in your favorites. Pictures and meet results will be there as well as necessary team info. You can order a team suit from the website as well if you want one.
MEET RSVP: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go to the team website and RSVP for your meets. You can state whether you are or are not going to be at each meet. Coach Joji would like for you to RSVP for every single meet whether attending or not. This helps him when he makes the line up. You can change your RSVP and last minute things always come up (sickness, emergency, etc). For those situations you can always call Coach Joji.

MEET VOLUNTEERS: Here we go...... we are small but mighty! Small means our swimmers have to swim their best and as many events as they can. Small means MOM and/or DAD HAVE TO HELP OUT AT THE MEETS. We MUST have every family sign up for some job at EVERY meet. Our first two meets are at home so we need even more help. You can sign up for volunteer spots on the website.
