It is the end of the fall and with that comes the final dual meet and Senior Night for the girls swim team against our Shorewood rivals. Charlotte swam hard and got PRs in both the 200 IM (2:20.64) and 100 FR (55.71). The 200 FR and 400 FR relay teams are looking to be in great shape for districts in a couple weeks. We bid farewell to an outstanding senior class of swimmers including Lauren, Mia, and Kasia that Charlotte really looks up to. The Shorecrest girls swim & dive team finished the season with a record of 7-1 and earned second place in WESCO South. Their only loss came to the much larger, 4A Jackson team. Charlotte also accomplished the rare feat of qualifying for Districts in every individual event. This is a rarity that happens once every decade or so on a swim team and relies on not only the versatility of the swimmer but also the willingness of the coach to put the swimmer into different races. Well done, Charlotte!
Friday night brought the annual Rotary Cup Football Game (Shorecrest versus Shorewood). It was raining like crazy and the only thing that got me motivated to go was seeing Charlotte and the rest of the Flag Team in a giant halftime show with the band and flaggers from Shorewood plus all the cheer, hip hop, and dance teams doing a routine to Thriller. It was.... thrilling! What an incredible collaboration to pull off in our district! I love Shoreline! Shoutout to our band leaders and performance team advisors for making this happen!
