Hello All,

We had another great month here at Westside Aquatics. We started with 18 swimmers back in November and have grown to 28 in the last two months. Thanks to all the swimmers and parents that have been passing the good word about our swim club.

We had a few college swimmers swim with us over the break including swimmers from Brown, Pepperdine, San Diego State, The College of New Jersey and Tulane. We look forward to seeing them again in the summer as we prepare to send a team to Senior Nationals.

Past Meets

Westside Aquatics participated in the recent Winter Invitational at the Commerce Natatorium. We had some great swims including Brian Johnson qualifying for his first finals at a Senior level meet. He qualified in both the 100 and 200 back. Katie Wong, Kendall Bohn and Alexa Merz also qualified for finals. Samantha Brill made her first "Q" cut in the 100 breast. In total we had nine swimmers participate.
