Top Ten in the State!

A tired John Robert displays his four state championship medals
for his proud momma.  Top Ten in four events!

While Spencer and Denver and I were playing catch, playing at the pool and goofing off today; my oldest son, John Robert, was swimming with an injured shoulder at the State Meet.  After hours of competition, he arrived home tonight exhausted, hungry, and victorious.

He made it into the finals in six events, and earned medals in four: 
8th in the 100 freestyle
6th in the 100 individual medley
6th in the 200 medley relay
6th in the 200 freestyle relay. 
Most importantly, he swam faster this year in every event; and he was EIGHT seconds faster in the 200 individual medley.
He is proud of himself, and ready for Nationals next weekend.

Amazing.

So proud of our guy.
