Team Results 2007 Empire State Games in Westchester County

Mon, 30 Jul 2007 10:41:56 -0400

THis year's Empire State Games Masters swimming competition was held July 27-29 in Westchester County at Pace University in a 25 yd format. Because of the distance to the Games and the fact that the swim was not LCM or SCM format, only two RAMS swimmers competed.

Barry Symonds is a relatively new member of the team, joining us in December 2006. Although he was an open water swim virgin at the Canandaigua Lake swim earlier this month, Barry is a seasoned pool competitor. Barry's specialties are breaststroke and IM and he earned 5 gold and 1 silver medals this weekend in the 50-54M group. Barry adds that after Lorie's instruction in the breaststroke and fly, he took 4 seconds off his best 100 Breaststroke time; 9 seconds off his 200 IM time and 15 seconds of his 400 IM time. Coaching does help!

2006 LCM Zones Trip

Tue, 29 Aug 2006 18:47:38 -0400

Scotty and I left Friday night from Rochester for Lancaster Pennsylvania, arrived at 10pm, visited with family and went to sleep at 11pm. We got up at 7am and had first breakfast headed out to the meet. By 8:30am we were shopping for second breakfast at Perkins because I promised Scott if we saw one we would stop and get Eggs Benedict.

We arrived at the hotel at 11:30am and met my mom there. She came from Massachusetts to watch the meet. I did a quick shave and we were leaving for the meet at 12:15pm. The directions were a little off, there was construction and it was a good think my mother got there a day early to scope things out. Now that we have been there once though this will not be a problem. The destination address brings you into university drive and really you need to keep going to the next intersection and go two lights to enter the campus from the other side.
