Helen Dixon Quotations

We have a younger group of girls in that event. Jenna is the only senior and we have two juniors and a sophomore. Each is strong with specialty strokes. This is one of the stronger relay teams than we've had in the past.

Jenna was just looking for regional qualifying times. She's concentrating on the 50-yard freestyle this season. The 100-yard butterfly isn't an event she wants to do at states.

Meredith moved up two places, she was previously ranked eighth. Her ultimate goal is to make the top 16 at states.

We only have between four or five boys. So it's tough filling some of the events. We do have 14,15 girls, so that gives us the advantage of putting a strong swimmer in each event.

It's a big step for Jake. His 100-yard fly time was phenomenal. He led the first half of the race before another swimmer pulled ahead. He also had a real strong race in the 100-yard freestyle. He was still riding the high from his time in the 100-yard fly.

It's good for her to choose, she knows it would be harder to place high in the 200 I.M.. The 200 free and 50 free aren't easy events but she has had good times in U.S.S. meets in those events.
