If New Trier is in a meet, people are watching. So I don't see any better reason than to start the 2nd weekend of conference meet recaps with the CSL South lead by the Trevians along with GBS and Evanston.
The first thing that popped out when I looked through these results: where's Morgan Conley? New Trier got some good work out of Lyida O'Connell, but I was really hoping to see where Morgan Conley was at 2 weeks out. I hope there was a conflict and not an injury.
I spent a little more time thinking about the New Trier team while looking through these results and I'm really wondering how their flyers and backstrokers will turn out. There's no shortage of freestylers and a Retondo/Hayward duo in breast has it on lockdown. But the back and fly make me wonder if the medley will be able to make top 6. This is the biggest thing that will hold them out of the team trophy race, in my opinion.
(I scored out all of my mid-season predictions and will post them whenever I find that score sheet again...)
Glenbrook South and Evanston are two teams that were also in the mix at this meet. I would be lying if I didn't say that I was disappointed, but it seems that these teams didn't put much focus on this meet and swam through it looking ahead to Sectionals and State. I can't really blame them, it's just more fun to see fast results, you know?
HIGHLIGHTS!
