There’s a time when a team needs to establish that they are the best contenters for this season, and the best time was the D3-invite for the boys swim and dive.
The Hamilton Boy’s swim and dive team has to show a lot of their potential early on in the season to establish their potential over the other teams.
The Boy’s want to establish what they’re capable of doing on the water by showing the other teams what they can do this season.
“It was our breakout meet that showed other teams what were capable of.” Justin Stark
Justin Stark was one of the people who showed a lot of his potential early on in the season, therefore made the state cut, which would give him an advantage to be able to improve his time.
This meet is a great opportunity for them because it would pressure them to swim at their best to make the state cut early on.
Some of the teams that were at meet were Holland christian, spring lake, and East grand rapids. These are teams that are tough to beat and by hamilton making state cuts its showing the other teams what hamilton is made of.
The boys going against these teams will set the standard of how they will need to swim to be able to make the cut.
