On Saturday, Feb, 8th, the Monarch swimmers returned to the GPS pool for their chance to add points to Cabrini's total.  The Monarchs sent Lily Heath, Chloe Roth, Thomas Day, Daniel Misovich, Tanner Pogorzelski and Evan Trohimczyk,  The morning started off with a season best time in the 200 Medley Relay that cut over three seconds from their previous mark.  Heath in her lead off leg dropping nearly a second in the split of her backstroke leg. Day jumped in next and equaled his season best split in the 50 breaststroke.  Misovich was next up in the butterfly and turned in a PR for his split.  Trohimczyk anchored the relay turning in a season best split in the 50 free capping of the first swim of the day with a 14th place finish.  Trohimczyk was up next in the 50 Freestyle turning in a personal record this time that placed him 12th and won him a bid to next weeks MISCA Meet at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Day also had a bid in the 50 Free and finished 39th for the event.

Trohimczyk finished his individual events with another PR performance placing 16th in the 100 Freestyle.  In his final event of the day Trohimzyk partnered with Pogorzelski, Misovich and Day to score another season best performance in the 200 Freestyle relay placing 10th and giving Misovich and Pogorzelski a PR split in the 50 free.  In the final individual event of the day for the Monarchs, Day swam his second fastest time of the year in the 100 Breaststroke finishing 37th.  In the final event of the competition, the team of Heath, Misovich, Roth and Pogorzelski finished 17th with Misovich scoring another PR split for his final swim of the day.

We were extremely happy with the entire teams performance.  Nearly 85% of our swims were SR or PR performances and some of the time drops the team put up were nothing short of incredible. It was an outstanding day to be a Monarch!

Cabrini will travel to Woodhaven High School this coming Tuesday when the Monarchs clash with the Warriors and Lincoln Park Rail Splitters in a double dual meet.  On this coming Saturday, Evan Trohimczyk will travel to Calvin College to at the MISCA Invitational in the 50 Freestyle.
