What an incredible weekend at Best of the West for Astra, Sarah, Lucy, and Bruce.

Just making it to this elite meet is an accomplishment in itself, and each of them showed exactly why they belonged there with strong swims, growth, and valuable experience.

It was also great to see how well they support each other throughout the meet behind the blocks, in the stands, and everywhere in between. That team spirit made the weekend even more special.

So proud of our athletes and all their hard work. Go Pirates! 🏴‍☠️

We are so proud of the work you’ve put in to reach this milestone. We also want to recognize the incredible support and guidance from Coach Ryan in helping them get to this stage of their swimming career.
