The South Eastern (VA) swim team season is well underway, and the girls team recently took part in the VSI SC Age Group Championships at the Collegiate School Aquatic center in Richmond.
It was a great outing for the Newport News based squad, who placed fourth of 31 teams.
According to coach Jeff Kincaid, Morgan Miller was his team’s standout in Richmond.
Says Kincaid, She really did the best job on our team, scoring and placing (in the 13-14 year old category) at night. She really shined in the 200 free and 500, as well as the 1650.”
Kincaid also noted that six other girls made it to the NASA cup, a new meet, which will be held in Florida later this summer.
South Eastern’s Jacqueline Tinneny, a DAILY PRESS all-star from Grafton High, won the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:05.18.
While the girls were in Richmond, Dave Henderson took 8 boys to a higher level meet called NCSA. Said Kincaid, of his colleague, “It’s really a big meet with 2000 kids and extremely difficult to make it back in finals; but, we have a few horses that made it back in a couple of their best events. “
Unfortunately, the results aren’t available at this time.
In other South Eastern news, the team is hosting a private movie showing of “Touch The Wall” featuring Missy Franklin and Kara Lynn Joyce. It’s the story of two Olympians in a documentary chasing their dreams with their coach in preparation for the 2012 Olympics. The team has invited a few folks from outside the team, but still has a small handful of tickets available. The event will be held this Sunday, April 12th at 2:30 at the Kiln Creek theaters on Victory Blvd. in Yorktown..
