The CSP Tideriders start the New Year off in Indy!

The Fishers Mudsock Classic was a first for the CSP Tideriders, and from the results of this meet, it looks as if it won’t be the last.  What a great meet to start off the New Year with for the Tideriders.  As a team, we finished in third place, only behind the host team and another team from Indiana.  Luke Sloan and Lydia Welty both won High Point awards for the Open age group, and the ice cream social that the parents held for the swimmers at the hotel was a huge hit!  This was a prelim final meet for the older kids and a timed final meet for the 10 & Unders.  One of the cool things about this meet was the 10 lane pool, as it gave more swimmers the opportunity to get second swims at night, thus giving them another shot at dropping more time in Finals!
