Parents,

First of all…thanks to Jon Fox for coaching the divers this weekend while I was at the NCAA zone meet.  He did a great job, as did the divers.  Elissa finished 2nd on 3 meter, and 1st on 1 meter and qualified for the East Nationals.  Also, Conner Callahan finished 6th on 3 meter and 5th on 1 meter and also qualified for Nationals on both boards.  Glyn Tompkins dove great and finished 6th on 1 meter and would have qualified, but he has that “from another country” thing going on, so he will have to wait a bit before he can go to Nationals.  Alison Menzies did a great job on 1 meter and finished in the top 16.  Awesome job to all the divers.

Today, we have to be out of the pool by 7:00 due to the NIT bb game.  The second group will get into the water right away @ 5:30 and be out by 7.  FYI.

Thanks again.

Kevin

Parents….

I need to run practice from 4:00 to 6:00 tomorrow evening, instead of 5:00 to 7:00.  I have plans tomorrow evening.  I will have one of my college divers stay until 7:00 if needed due to this change in time.

Just wanted to give you a heads up.

Kevin

Parents,

We have the final bb game tomorrow (Tuesday).  There will be no practice.

Parents and Divers…

It has been a few years since we have ordered T-shirts.  I want to order them for this summer for the meets coming up.  It’s also good advertising for THD.

I only have about 7/8 shirts that have been ordered.  I can probably get the cost down to around $12.00 a shirt, but that means we have to order about 50 for that to happen.  I don’t want to order 50, and be stuck with 30 or so shirts.

If you are interested in ordering a THD diving shirt, please send Charlene Stocking an email by the 15th of March.  Her email is:  charlenestocking@hotmail.com.  After that point, if we do not have about 25 or so shirts ordered, we will cancel.

Thanks for your interest.

Kevin

Parents,

There is a BB game Wednesday night, so no practice.  The Men’s ACC Championships are being held at UNC this week, so we will need to practice earlier on Thursday and Friday.

Thursday and Friday we will practice from 3:30 to 5:00.  Both groups (beginner and JO) can practice at that time to make up some of our missed practices.  We will not have practice on Saturday, but I will try to run practice on Sunday again.

Thanks for your patience.

Kevin

Please can you place your orders for shirts with Charlene as soon as possible.

Parents,

UNC is hosting the ACC’s Swimming and Diving Championships this week, so today (Tuesday) will be our last day of practice for the week.  I will see if Jon Fox can run a practice Saturday afternoon, and get back to you.  Teams will be coming in tomorrow to practice, and competition runs through Saturday.

Kevin

Parents,

This Wed we will not have practice due to a bb game.  There is the 100 year celebration game on Friday for Men’s BB.  Saturday there will not be practice either due to another bb game.  Next week seems a bit quieter.

Thanks for your patience….

Kevin
