Champs Wrap-Up!
Wow, wow, and wow! What an amazing day for the Glen Allen Gliders! Congratulations to all those that swam at JRAC Champs! We came home with the 6th place trophy (643 points) and the Blue Division Sportsmanship award. Both are major accomplishments!
Some highlights of the day:
Maddie Pierce broke the JRAC record in Senior Girls 50 Meter Backstroke with a time of 29.04 AND the JRAC record in 50 Meter Butterfly with a time of 28.28. Way to go, Coach!
