Q Swims Saturday at The Trials "Get Your Motor Running McKenna!"

@JustinKellogg23 Fear "The #40" -Got Grit -Be Relentless

To be Successful; Your Dreams need to be greater than your Excuses!

Daily challenges presented by “The 19” can wear anyone down. “On those days when you feel like you don’t have much to give… Make sure you give ALL you have!” @CoachMotto Get Up- GRIT UP- Never Give Up!

“A person who doubts himself makes his failure certain by himself being the first person to be convinced of it.” French Author Alexandre Dumas. He also penned the quintessential slogan for any and every team: "Un pour tous, tous pour un" (Get your Google on)

The success of your journey to the "Mountain Top" will rarely be determined by the time you spent in the valleys. Have Grit- Be Relentless!

Never let your "What might have happened" be stronger than your "What still will be" There is a reason why the Windshield of a car is so big, and the rear view mirror is so small.... Where you want to go is more important than where you just were!!

Tough to be an athlete right now. Have confidence in your years of commitment. Fall back on your self discipline. It will not fail you! “Our doubts are traitors, And make us lose the good we oft might win, By fearing to attempt.-”William Shakespeare Have Grit- Be Relentless!

Don't forget Kellie, Lanie, Q and Laurel also made the "List" in the 200 Medley Relay...Nice!

Kellie, Laurel, Aimee, and Mckenna are named All American in the 400 free relay as well!!! They finished 15th in the country!! Congrats again ladies! 🖤💛 @MeteaAthletics @MeteaBoosters @MVPrincipal1 @DescendingSet

Who wants to be State Champ in the 200 IM and 100 Fly at the 2035 IHSA Girls State Swimming Championships?

First Kevin, then Beebs, now Alex- A pattern seems to be developing, The "Dillmanator" strikes!-Commitment to Excellence Award. "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.” ― Aristotle Well done Alex!!

WOW! Making good decisions, leads to great accomplishments in the pool, and more importantly the classroom. But then again, it was only a 3.91/4.0 in Physics😲 "Rise above oneself and grasp the world"-Archimedes Nice Job Beebs!

It's said: "All the athletes are in the same boat" Everyone is fighting the same fight, the same rough water, BUT YOU are the captain of YOUR boat! Are you paddling hard upriver toward your goals? OR Are your dreams being swept away by circumstances? Got Grit Be Relentless

Not much of a surprise. Special K just loved to swim and take care of his teammates👍

Congratulations Lucy...Going to the University of Iowa. Whoa, wait a minute...Isn't that where Alex C. goes? That would be like Batman and Robin, Green Hornet and Cato, Monica and Rachel...Yea, Monica and Rachel, going to the same University-Yikes. Get to work Doc!

"My goal in the off-season is to create the best athlete I can create and give it to the coaches and say here, use it how you want." – J.J. Watt What have you done today? In this "Off" Season! Get Grit- Be Relentless!

Great addition for the Illini! The "Best is Yet to Come" for this one... And that's saying a lot when you consider how exceptionally she performed over the last 4 years! Congrats Laurel!!!

Lewis University Swimming not only got better with this addition, but a lot more FUN! They have never heard anything like the call of the "Wild Lanie Bird"
