32 Michigan Masters swimmers headed all the way to San Antonio and came home with a 4th place finish in the regional division combined, 4th place Men’s team and 5th place Women’s.

Weather was very helpful the first 3 days with clouds and mild temperatures. Sunday got a little hard on all of us with blowing flags, missed walls and tired swims. The best was our new swag and the huge cheering section for all of our team. We were noticed! Big thank you to Kevin Doak who did interviews, pictures and daily updates so all our fans at home felt like they had front row seats. So proud to be the captain of our team. We are fun and fierce!
