The boys swim team began their 2019-2020 season on November 11th. Led by coach Nancy Bennett, the boys swimming team are hoping for a high rank in section 6 this 2019-2020 season. Last season, the boys swim team were ranked 6th seat in section 6 at the Class C Championships. I had a chance to speak with Coach Bennett and captain Sam Cansdale to see what their aspirations for the season are and a small recap from last season. Among their answers, Coach Bennett and Sam both stated that one of the main goals with the team is to make sectionals and ECIC Division Champions. Captain Sam Cansdale is hoping to make it to sectionals again personally this year. Practices vary from starting at 3:30pm or starting at 5pm. The boys tend to start off  the practices with varying versions of 200m. The first meet date is Monday the 25th.

Questions asked were:

How is the start of the season going this year in terms of conditioning and what is going into for preparing the team to be ready for the season?

What are your aspirations for the season for the team (and for yourself – Sam)?

What is the date of your first meet?
