10/30/09 HSA Begins Year With Successful Meet at Auburn
In the first full team meet of the year, HSA swimmers got off to a fast start. The 9-10 girls continued their record setting ways with Sarah Margaret Cimino and Chloe Hui again re-setting the 50 and 100 Back team records, respectively. Several swimmers managed to defeat a competitive crowd to win individual events. Those swimmers were: Sarah Margaret Cimino, Cameron Conners, Chloe Hui, Tyler Kaliszak, Tehuti Taylor, and Mallory Underwood.
One of the new features you will see added to the meet results this year are the H.S.A. "Stepping Stones." The object of these times is to give swimmers a progression towards a Southeastern cut, and a progression beyond once the Southeastern cut has been achieved. The gold, silver, and bronze cuts are a three year average of 1st, 8th, and 16th place at the previous three Southeasterns. The Southeastern cut is based on a three year average of 32nd place at Southeasterns for most events. The blue, red, and white cuts are based on a percintile chart that USA Swimming provides. Hopefully, all athletes will find these as another way to help them set reachable, progressive goals.
Based on previous best times, the following swimmers achieved new Stepping Stone times. Listed is their highest achieved:
Silver: Sarah Margaret Cimino, Chloe Hui, McKenzie Mokry, and Mallory Underwood
Bronze: Szymmy Day and Isaac Devaney
SEQT: Cameron Conners, Macon Graves, Ellen Haapoja, Alex Krause, Lindsey Martin, Liz Olson, Afura Taylor, and Auset Taylor
Blue: David Butler, Megan Hinely, Brad Hollihan, and Regan Weakley
Red: Jackson Graves, Erin Paul, and Tchaasu Taylor

With some of the top teams in the country in attendance, HSA swimmers put a dent in the record books over the weekend at the NAC Summer Sizzler. Mallory Underwood wiped out three of the oldest team records on the books over the weekend. Mallory bettered two of Kristen Owen's 9-10 team records from 1983, in both the 50 and 100 free. Mallory's times of 30.59 and 1:07.15 bettered the previous records of 31.04 and 1:07.48. She also bettered Lauren Kaufmann's team record in the 50 back of 36.44 by swimming to a time of 36.02.
The meet also saw several HSA swimmers finish within the top 8 of events. Those swimmers were Sarah Margaret Cimino, Cameron Conners, Szymmy Day, Macon Graves, Alison Hu, Mallory Underwood, and George Wong. In what served as the last chance for many HSA swimmers to qualify for the summer Southeasterns meet, several swimmers added to their HSA Stepping Stone Cuts. Those swimmers were:
Gold: Mallory Underwood
Silver: Macon Graves
Bronze: Sarah Margaret Cimino, Emily Vasquez, and George Wong
SEQT: Renae Blasingame, Kevin Byrne, Maya Day, Phil Deaton, Sara Neil, Valerie Nubbe, Erin Paul, Christina Tarsitano, and Sam Vasquez
