Swim Meet at the University of the Cumberlands

 The swim team left on Friday at 3:15 and headed south to the University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, KY.  It was about a six hour trip and thankfully they made it to their hotel without incident. On Saturday, the meet started at 2:00 and she would swim in three events... the 100 breaststroke, the 50 freestyle, and the 4x100 relay.

It was live-streamed so I started watching it and I was able to watch her swim both the breastroke and freestyle events, but then she wasn't racing again until the very last races of the meet so I wasn't able to watch the entire meet.

It's been a while since she has swam the 100 breaststroke but she improved on her previous best time with a new PR of 1:18.  Her 50 freestyle was slower than she would have liked but then the relay came through with a big victory, winning their entire event.  (Unfortunately, we don't know the individual splits of that race, but they placed first, so the team was happy about that).



Marissa will be back in the competition pool for at least one more meet this season as the team will compete in the Conference Championships in Kentucky during the first week of February.
