A quick call out to a teammate of ours here in AZ that we are extremally proud of. Jose grew up plaing soccer and never swam a lap in his life until last September. After watching the Olympics he was so motivated to learn that he showed up at BEST and went after with more energy and enthusiasm than you can imagine...and after 9 months we have all been stunned at his success:
Event 23 Men 25-29 50 Yard Freestyle
27 Ponce, Jose 26 ARIZ 23.63 23.42
Event 41 Men 25-29 100 Yard Freestyle
21 Ponce, Jose 26 ARIZ 53.62 51.44
24.20 51.44 (27.24)
* I'm guessing this might actually be the one example of a "Late Bloomer" that even Ion can't argue with!
