Downstate Schools, Part I

As I was beginning to look through results from southern teams for swimming, and start to formulate a post about them, I noticed a great article on DelawareOnline about Cape Henlopen and the team's three swimmers with Autism. It truly is a great story, and I wish that more of our news articles were so positive. I have friends who have family members diagnosed with Autism, and the challenges they face because of it are huge, so to hear of three boys working against Autism and the challenge of swimming on a team is really heartwarming. Kudos to Coach Geppert, the three swimmers, and the entire team for being so supportive.

  1. For a future post you may want to expand upon some of the rivalries we will be seeing at states. Ex, Materniak n Kurz most likely in the IM and Breast, Gordon and Moore in the Back and Fly, McKee and Minderlein in distance freestyle and of course Gehrs vs Ramsey.
