Congrats to everyone who had a season or lifetime bests performances Saturday. It was fun to watch and to be excited to see what the program’s future has in store.

We would really enjoy you coming this week to swim with Tyler. It will help him and will break up the training routine of practicing by himself.

And when you come to practice this week, bring back your parka and backpack. You can also take your other equipment home.

Here are some end-of-season things to complete as well.

This is the week we have been preparing for. We have trained hard and must stay focused for one more week.

We have been to the Fond Du Lac Aquatic Center and know what to expect when we get there.

This week’s theme is being prepared, staying focused, and getting more rest.

If anyone makes it to State the following week, all are encouraged to come to practices for State Week. It is a special week leading up to the State Meet.

Those who are finished this week should make plans for next week to return their parka and their backpack.

Here are some end-of-season things to complete as well.

2022-23 Week 12

That was as good of a conference meet we have had in a long time as it related to best times.

14 of the 22 swims were season or best times.

Maybe it was the new shirts.

Maybe it was the new temporary tattoos.

But it probably was the hard work and effort the past couple of weeks at practice.

Hard work shows results.

And there is room for us to go faster!!!

This week is a tough one. We are close to tapering. And there is so much that needs to still be done before we can taper. Need to stay engaged at practice each day.

Here are some end-of-season things to complete as well.

2022-23 Championship Week

A fun-filled week 10 that included Senior night and a dual meet win and a fun Saturday swim brings on Championship Week.

The Classic 8/Greater Metro Conference Championship Meet is Friday and Saturday. Friday will be the divers at Muskego while Saturday is the swimming at Waukesha South.

As we start to close out the season, you will be seeing more emails from the coaching staff for end-of-season wrap-up events. Those would include voting for awards, answering some questions for the slide show, and when to bring back equipment/parka.

We are working on setting up a concluding Awards Program for the season. Stay tuned for more information.

We will need 2 timers for the meet on Saturday per conference by-laws. If you are interested in timing, please let Coach know.

2022-23 Week 10

14 of 21 season best times at the Fondy Invite and another great meal brought Week 9 to an exciting conclusion.

This brings us to Week 10 and just two weeks until Conference and 4 weeks until Sectionals.

We are getting better and it is getting exciting!

Week 10 also brings us to the last dual meet of the season. We will honor our 4 seniors at 5:45 PM

We are into the last couple of weeks. Staying healthy, getting more rest at night, drinking enough water, as well as keeping up with our studies will lead to a fantastic conclusion to the season. Bring your water bottle to practice.

2022-23 Week 9

Week 8 ended with a great team showing at the Marquette Invite. 11 of the 12 swims were season bests.

And the progress we are making is setting up for so fast swimming over the next couple of weeks.

That resulted in a great big meal at Solly’s – and it is possible that some are still in their food coma yet today.

This takes us to Week 9 with no mid-week dual meet and just a Saturday invite.

We need to have a solid week of practice following the process. This includes working hard at the practices as designed – working hard as the sets describe and resting when the sets say to rest. We also need to dress appropriately for the weather and drink water at practice (HINT: bring a water bottle to practice)

2022-2023 Week 7

Week 6 ended in a way that only can happen during the Boy Season – with two off days because of the weather. It is bound to happen again this season.

Your patience and flexibility are greatly appreciated when this occurs

Saturday morning’s optional practice was a solid way to finish the week

Alumni were in the water mid-week with us and continued on Saturday. Most will be around this week and excitement will ramp up with the Alumni Meet on Thursday.

The bus on Tuesday for Sauk Prairie will leave at 1 PM and we will be stopping at the original Culvers on the way back home. In the past, this meet has been live-streamed. We are expecting it will be again this year. Once we have the link for the meet, we will send it out. Most of the time, a pre-meet interview with Coach Kyle is shown during the meet.

2022-23 Week 6

It is simply a beautiful time of the year!!

Ohhh we are heading into Winter Break where the yardage increase, the number of practices per day increases, and the number of rest decreases.

The Spiritwear store is open again for a couple more days. Make sure you get your orders in. The direct link for the store is https://bsg.chipply.com/wnkmpmensspiritwear/ It closes on Thursday.

There are a couple of team dinners left on the sign-up sheet if you are interested – https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0e4aa4a62da46-team#/

And we could use more timers at the Alumni Meet in two weeks.

We talked after the West dual that we will have ups and downs during the meets this year. 12 of our 19 swims were season-best times on Thursday – so we know we are getting faster. The key part is to keep sticking with it and keep getting better.

A whole week of training before we race again, so “Work” will be the keyword over the next two weeks.

2022-23 Week 5

Thankfully Week 4 is complete.

Hopefully, everyone is back to being healthy for Week 5.

We are heading into the bulk of our training and it will be necessary for everyone to work hard to stay away from germs. This includes dressing appropriately after practice.

Week 5 also brings our first home meet. Thursday’s meet at home will be against Waukesha West and starts at 6 PM. Warm-ups start at 4:30 PM Everyone stays until the end of the meet and swims down at the end of the meet. We can always use more timers – https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0e4aa4a62da46-202223

Spirit wear should be in this week. Let’s remember to keep wearing our gear to promote our team and try to get more athletes to come out for the team.

Alumni should also start trickling in this week to visit and some will be swimming.
