The 2011-12 Short-Course Yards season ends on June 1, but not before some fast championship meets! Arguably the two most important to our LMSC are Colonies Zone SCY Championship, on Apr 13-15 in Fairfax, VA, and USMS Spring Nationals, which runs Apr 26-29 in Greensboro, NC. Many LMSC members will be competing in one or both of these events.

Zone Championship: Of the 400+ swimmers congregating at the GMUP pool in Fairfax, 59 of them will hail from our LMSC, representing 5 clubs : QMST (5), STON (2), SUNF (5), VMST (37), and WAVA (4), with 6 members swimming unattached. Check out the meet roster here, and see how your teammates are doing by following the real-time results. (Note: the meet/team roster here only includes those who registered online, not those who mailed in their entries.)

National Championship: We have a big group heading down to North Carolina: 105 swimmers (out of 1850+ total) representing CFYM (3), FSYM (4), QMST (7), STON (6), SUNF (1), URMS (1), VMST (71), VTAC (1) and WAVA (1), plus 10 swimmers competing unattached.
