Realky need to change the “Girls” and “Boys” to “Women” and “Men”

Was that the best meet ever for the Mason Manta Rays?

The coaches must be ecstatic at how well their kids swam this year.

Magnolia is a small team. I might be wrong but I think they only have one 25 yard pool and a small shallow warm down pool.

From pictures, it looks like the pool isn’t quite 50 meters, but it has a bulkhead and at least 16 lanes. (Not that their pool takes away from any accomplishments of the team.)

Anonymous- Can confirm. As a swimmer with a local team that competes in Magnolia often, their primary training facility is the Magnolia HS Nat which is exactly like you describe.

MAC clipped Magnolia when MAC’s B medley relay scored pretty high, so it basically came down to the last event on the women’s side!

Relay clipped, mac scored 300 points on relays alone, recipe to win – bring enough athletes to score two relays.
