Peter Clark from USA Swimming, our Eastern Zone representative, stopped by to observe morning Wahoo practices. He spoke to the National, Senior I & II groups about the willingness to prepare in order to be your best. As always, he imparts important information to the coaching staff and helps us all get excited about our championship meets! Thanks Peter!
