Tuckahoe Swim Team - Monday Night Heavyweights: Coach Torey vs. Coach Zach
It was great to see the energy on deck last night at our first Monday Night B. Thank you to our 13-14 year old age group swimmers for carrying the Captain Tuckahoe banner and leading our team cheers! While it was a long meet, the coaches gained some valuable data with great swims and personal bests up and down the roster.
