State swimming was four times more successful than last year by far! Davis (seeing as how there only six of us that actually swam) got 12th which is amazing! My relays did fantastic, trounced condie and his team by three seconds in the 400 free relay. shaved off three seconds from our best time as well. We (Colten and Parker Simonson, Zack Santella and myself) now sit at 
a 3.25.00 range. 8th place over all but hey dude we totally kicked the crap out of previous Davis records. Like in the 200 freestyle relay. We (Me, Mitch Brown, Colton Simonson and Zach Santella) knocked the old Davis record out by four seconds!!! We're now at a 1.32.00, which put us in fifth place at state. Personally, I bested my fifty free time by .2. Which is significant drop in the fifty free cuz all you're doing is down
and back really really really REALLY fast!!! I got a 00.22.75. Which is really good, fastest on the team...but not the fastest in Davis history. i'm a tenth way though. I'll get it next year hopefully :) Even though I desperately wanted it this year :( Ah well, life is full of disappointments. I'm proud of myself for doing so well though, especially at my age. Anywho I loved seeing Joe and Condie again (Joe's in the middle and 
Condie's on the right in the pic---->) I'm actually going to, probably, hang out with Joe this coming weekend. Great boys, both of them. I look up to them (literally in Joe's case haha that boy is monstrously tall) alot. They are good upright people. Joe made a really nice compliment to me right before the fifty free. I was talking to him and he was talking about how nervous and scared he was because last year he choked and blew it. I was talking to him about that, and when I was done he said "Alex you always make me feel good." At first I thought he was being sarcastic, but he was serious. And that gave me a bunch of warm fuzzies. The kid's a senior and he's one of the coolest people I know. A great role model. Overall a very successful weekend I think.
