Atlanta 2010: Where's the energy?

Haven't seen much about Atlanta next May. Seems like a National LMSC challenge would get a few swimmers motivated. Seems there ought to be a way to break up teams so that they are roughly comparable. What about a heavyweight division (100+ swimmers), light heavyweight division (75-100) middleweight (50-75) and lightweight (under 50)?
  • I remember seeing something about the dorms being offered at 2010 SCY Ntls. Does anyone know WHEN we will find out about that? I'd like to latch onto that if I can.

Where is the pool that your team trains at in Murietta? Are you bringing your team to Long Beach in December? I think you'll meet up with a lot of swimmers and coaches at the SPMA Championships who are planning to compete in Atlanta! How lucky is your team to have such an enthusiastic coach! Keep up the energy, it will definitely pay off :)
  • I'm guessing they are training at the HS pool (13 lanes!). Looks like the only pool in town.

    I am actually moving to South Carolina (I went to college at Clemson University), so a bunch of college friends and past swimmers are getting back into it and we are going to be joining the same team to get ready for nationals!!! Anyone have any idea of when we should hear about the dorm situation? I think that can be a lot of fun, taking us back to our college days!!
  • I'm sorry:badday: I swam at S. Carolina 89-93:D Then we probably swam at the same meet. I did my lifetime bests in all 3 focus events at the 91 Metro Conference Championships at USC. I swam for College of Charleston and somehow we were invited... Also did a 3-way dual meet in 92 with USC and Florida State. That night I went back to Charleston and managed to put an arm through a plate glass window, ending my college swimming career. But, good memories of that pool.

  • I'm psyched for several reasons: 1. I got back into swimming competitively this year. 2. I qualified for USAT Age Group Nationals for next September (this past weekend) and am still on that rush. 3. I haven't swum SCY competitively since getting back into swimming (only LCM and OWS), so it will be nice to get back to my roots. 4. I used to live in Atlanta so no need to live the dorm life...plenty of friends to stay with. 5. I love swimming in pools built specifically for the Olympics. See you next May!

Yep, that was back in the days of the Metro Conference and Independant schools. It was always between us FSU and Miami (mostly due to their great divers). I think in 91' I won the 500 and 1650, in 90' I won the 500 but got beat by Keith Frostad (Miami) in the mile. I also swam the 200 Free and 800 Free Relay. We had some great battles with FSU in that relay. C of C was always our first meet of the season back then. You probably know Kerri Hvizdak then...I swam with her at Dynamo. I also knew Christy Heiser. I always loved going to Charleston, still do.
