Second Shave Meet
On Tuesday, November 11, all swimmers will attend the second shave meet. This meet is a chance to swim shaved and tapered in additional events beyond what was done at the conference meet. Team members choose their races and often choose to swim events they didn't swim during the season. The only restriction is that they may not swim an individual event they swam at the CAAC conference championship meet. This is the last swim meet for team members who will not be competing at the state championship meet. The bus leaves at 3:15. The meet starts at 5:30. Divers who are competing at Regionals will have practice.

Practice on Wednesday (11/12)
This is the last practice for all team members who will not be competing at the diving regional or the MHSAA state tournament. Team members will vote for awards and turn in their parkas and return borrowed technical suits. Those students who will be going on to compete at the regional and state levels continue to practice as normal.

Which swimmers will be going to the State Meet?
Students who have qualified, including relay alternates.
