Retherford Sisters Lead PCST with Great Swims in Mobile!

Half of the Entire Team Competing in Mobile Scores Top 8 Swims!

Our top finisher at the CMSA Vance Rose Invitational Swim Meet was Hannah Retherford in the 11-12 Girls.  Hannah finished in the top 8 in 9 different events to earn a 2nd place High Point Award in her age group.  She was followed closely behind by her sister, Heidi Retherford, who had 9 swims in the Top 8 for the 8 & under girls!  We also had some terrific swims by a young 11-12 age group contingent that Coach Brian is working hard on improving.  All three 11-12 relays finished in the top 8 at the meet.  Way to go Tsunamis!
