Black and Orange Meet - Time Trials

This was the first year that the Jersey Shore summer swim team held a mock meet.  It allowed many of the new swimmers a chance to race under simualted race conditions, it gave coaches a chance to see what times swimmers had going into the race season on different events, and it gave new swim parents a practice run on timing and recording those times.  Click on pictures to enlarge.
