3. Swimmers Of The Meet from The Elmbrook 8 & Under  And Menomonee Falls Meets Last Weekend:

After each meet, one female swimmer and one male swimmer from South’s Age Group 1, Age Group 2, Age Group 3, Super 8, Schroeder Star, and SuperStar Groups will be acknowledged as the Swimmer of the Meet.  A number of criteria will be considered for this honor, including meet performance, attending all sessions of the meet, practice attendance and work ethic, improvement, sportsmanship, positive attitude, swimming an event for the first time, etc.

Swimming at Elmbrook, Nadia Chamulak is our female swimmer.  Nadia swam two new events, 25 breast and 25 fly, and she swam all best times.  Noah Cheng is our male swimmer from Elmbrook.  Noah has excellent practice attendance, and at the meet he swam 6 individual races and 2 relays.

Emily Patzfahl is our female swimmer from Menomonee Falls.  She joined the team at the start of the Spring Session, and she swam some really challenging events this past weekend over both days, including the 200 breast, 200 free and 200 back.  She swam many good times, highlighted with a 32 in her 50 free.  Justin Lacey is our male swimmer.  He had an outstanding meet, swimming virtually all best times.  One dramatic example of this is his 200 free; he dropped 15 seconds in that event.

6. Get Your WSAC Car Decals While They’re Hot:

WSAC stickers for your vehicle’s window are available in two varieties.  The cost is $5.00 for each one.  Talk to your swimmer’s coach if you’d like one.  We recommend that with two choices, you take both to your vehicle and compare to see which one looks best.

8. Contact Your Swimmer’s Coach Directly And Mail All Checks to Matt Miller:

Please contact your swimmer’s lead coach for all questions.  Do not use the Schroeder team email for that reason as it causes much confusion as to who answers your question or if your question was even answered.  So feel free to email your child’s coach or talk to her/him before or after practice.

Please mail all checks to Matt Miller rather than giving them to coaches at practice.  We have not lost a check yet, but practice can get a little hectic.  You can mail them to Matt at the following address:

Matt Miller, â„… WSAC, 9240 North Green Bay Road, Brown Deer, WI 53209

9. Private Competitive Swim Lessons:

If interested in a private swim lesson, contact your swimmer’s lead coach.
