It's All In The Finish!

Great final swim of Britt's career with a 41st place finish (she was seeded 41st) and a 52.61, second all time only to her PSAC relay lead off of 52.48 three weeks ago.

LHU finished the weekend tied for 30th place (with Shippensburg). We finished 4th amongst PSAC schools at the meet.



Cant go to the south without a trip to eat some BBQ, and Full Moon BBQ was some of the best I've ever had. Britt's parents agreed, and Britt had her first swimming retirement meal that featured a Dr. Pepper and a piece of pie.

We made our way over to the senior celebration (pictures below) and over to watch the finals of Track and Field (in between swimming finals). Brittany Whitmer had some great jumps and finished well above her seed, and Alex Monroe had a school record performance in his 3k, taking 6th overall and finishing All American. Great to see and we were proud to be there! GO HAVEN


Closing Ceremonies were just like everything else at the meet: first class. Division II Festival is an idea that once every 4 years the national meet is bigger and better than ever, and I can truly say that the NCAA did a great job on planning out the details. Britt couldnt have had a better national meet to finish out on, and it was great to see her enjoy herself out of the water and do a great job in it too!

Britt finishes as an athlete that has many accolades in and out of the water for our program, as seen HERE. She's got a lot to be proud of with her time here at LHU, and LHU is certainly proud of her too. Great finish to a great national meet!
