Great swims, considering most were not tapered for this meet. It is nice to see Amy end her High School career with two state records, she is a quality individual. Thanks to all the officials that gave up a three day weekend to give these kids a chance to do something memorable for their high school. The depth of quality swimmers in Nevada get overlooked sometimes for being right next to California, But these kids did a great job and we should see some more records fall next year as well.
