Katelin Britton won the Frosh-Soph 100 Free race with her personal best time of 51.81 seconds. Turns out this was the fastest time overall (including Varsity girls) and just shy of breaking the old record of 51.70. She also finished 3rd place in 500 Free with a time of 5:09.09 seconds.

Hailee Baldwin also swam her personal best in 200 IM and 100 Breast with times of 2:11.57 & 1:05.83, respectively. She placed close 3rd and 2nd overall in the Frosh-Soph division. She was barely out-touched in 100 Breast, as the winning time was 1:05.66.

Simone Gagnon also swam her personal best in 100 Fly and 200 IM with times of 1:01.03 & 2:17.80, respectively. She finished 2nd in the 100 Fly consolation final and 8th in the 200 IM final.

Ryan Lee finished 2nd place in 100 Fly prelims with a time of 54.22 and 5th place in 100 Breast prelims (1:03.83), but did not get to compete in the finals due to late entry error. Ryan will be moving to Thousand Oaks area and we wish him the best of luck in his swim and water polo career. We will miss you, Ryan!

2nd day of Nor Cal Cup Tournament results

admin — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 20:20:31 +0000

–March 26, 2011 Saturday–
Ripon’s 6th Grade/Under and 8th Grade/Under teams traveled to UC Davis aquatic center for this second installment of Nor Cal Cup Tournament. Unfortunately, the weather was not very cooperative and we had to play in pretty frightful conditions: wind, rain, cold…

Despite the bad weather, our teams played very well. For the 8th Grade/Under team, we played American River-A team again (apparently the game we lost to them in Clovis 2 weeks ago did not count) at 8 AM first game, and the outcome was the same. We lost again by a score of 12-9. We won the next two games against Clovis-Cougar and Sacramento teams. Our final game against Clovis-WPC was a heart breaker, losing 5-4 after coming from behind from 4-0 to 4-4 tie (all 4 goals scored in the last quarter), then giving up a goal with 2 seconds left to play. We had so many opportunities to score in this game, but for some reason the shots were not going in. I would personally like a re-match on this one

As for the 6th Grade/Under team, they also went 2-2 but these guys seem like they are getting better each time they play.

Our heart felt thanks to the Coaches, Erik and Christine, who stayed out in the cold, rainy and windy day doing everything they can to lead the teams and teach the kids how to play this tough game.

Next up: St. Mary’s HS pool on April 16th.

Ripon Aquatics 8th Annual Crab Feed

admin — Sun, 20 Mar 2011 17:46:00 +0000

Despite the rain and wind, we had another successful Crab Feed this year, thanks to our guests and sponsors. Our swimmers, polo players, coaches & families all worked very hard to make this event happen. Special thanks to Mrs. Gagnon who undertook the organizer role after Mrs. C. Smith and made the transition look so smooth and seamless. Mrs. Lee again took care of all the gift basket wrappings and preparations; Mr. & Mrs. Price worked like pro bartenders; the Quarterback Club friends endured the cold and bitter weather outside cooking up the Tri-tips; Mrs. Rogers put together an incredible slide + video show + DJ; Mr. Barton again sold some $1300 tickets (50/50) for us…and so on. Our kids had a great time as usual (just ask Derek).

Thank you again everyone who made this possible and we will see you next year!
