Elyce Kastigar Quotations

Unfortunately, Nikki was competing when her health was not very good yet but still put out a good race.

Andy has a focus on improving as an overall athlete. He has focused on improving the technical aspects that will affect his performance in the pool. Andy has had to use the clock to push himself. I compliment him on this difficult task for a long season.

Emily's time is extremely fast. Fallon swam her fastest time of the season and had a good race.

Emily did not swim her fastest times but qualifying for the finals is a great achievement.

The time standards for this meet are much greater than the sectional meet. Emily continues to step up to achieve greater time standards which allows her more opportunities to swim with other swimmers across the country.

The swimmers are excited to perform at home and have family and friends see them at the state level. This meet will require many volunteer hours and our team is excited and preparing to host a great event.

They gave out cash prizes to the pro swimmers. There were Olympic athletes and college ones. They were from all over. They were high-caliber athletes.

It seems like every time she swims that race she sets a record.

I hope that residents of Aberdeen and surrounding areas will come watch South Dakota's best competition of swimmers and see what competitive swimming is about. People across the state are excited to compete in Aberdeen's new pool.

In one sense, this is sad. I have many fond memories of the old pool.
