The season ended with a bang for many of the Patriots this weekend, as our boys claimed their 11th DPS League Championship in the last 12 years.

GW continued its total domination of DPS by winning all 11 swimming events and taking second in the diving.  The final score was:

GW 400

EAST:  353

TJ:  277

Montbello:  107

Our team swam incredibly well in Friday's prelims as 15 out of our 18 athletes qualified for "swim back" in the finals on Saturday.  Finals qualifiers included:

  • Kevin B-N.

  • Henry B.

  • Xavier B.

  • Sean C.

  • Chris E.

  • Ben H.

  • Kyle H.

  • Ben J.

  • Dan J.

  • Richard M.

  • Seth P.

  • Boris P.

  • Alec S.

  • Sam S.

  • Jake W.

The highlight of the meet was Xavier's second State Qualifying time in the 200 free.  He will be joining the rest of the State Swimmer in next weekend's 5A Colorado State Championship in Ft. Collins (Jake, Dan, Ben, Kevin, Seth, Kyle, and Richard).

Four event winners included Jake, Dan, and Ben.  But, everyone swam well and even our newest swimmers scored valuable team points.

Special thanks this week to the Witter family who hosted a team spaghetti dinner on the Thursday night before prelims.  The boy's team does not get together very often, so it was very nice of them to have everyone over to their house for some team building, poker, and Rock Band.

The victory was a bit bittersweet, however, as our adopted mascot, GEORGE and our League Championship trophy were both kidnapped by the East Angels!
