If a synchro swimmer who cant count (clearly there isnt one, but hypothetically) finds a four leaf clover, is she lucky?

Hello Everyone!

We have just finished Spring Break training in preparation for Collegiate Nationals. It was an intense week but we got through it like true Lyons. We spent the week cleaning up routines and fixing some things that were not working.

Last weekend we had Regionals at Keuka. In overall team points we placed a proud 2nd, something that has not been achieved since 2003. It is so satisfying to know that we are right on track with our yearly goals and that we are gaining ground on the "Wheaton Wow" we are looking for.

We are just getting ready for ECAC's this weekend, our last home meet of the season and we cannot wait to show how much we have improved and of course to show off our sick suits and routines.

Nationals is right after that and we are prepared and swimming stronger than ever. To alleviate some stress, we had some St Patrick's day activities like drunk (pretend of course) relays and money hunting!



To our girls who have not found out yet, GOOD LUCK! We cannot wait until you all get here! Study hard and swim harder!



The videos from Regionals are up, and we know you are dying to watch them, so here they are!

The Pack is Gaining Respect

Hello All!

We are enjoying a two weekend break from competition, having just come back from a successful New York two day competition. We traveled first Canisius College for a tri meet with them and Keuka. We competed well and had good swims, but as always there was still work to be done. After a delicious dinner at teammate Ana's house we drove to Keuka College.
At Keuka we swam figures as well as routines, placing in the top spots in all the events we competed in. It was a very good showing for the Lyons. We then proceeded to travel back home, getting back quite late but still happy to be home.
Overall the weekend was a success, we showed what we as a team are capable of and that we are coming strong. Upon getting back in the water on Tuesday, there was still more work to do, but that is synchro for you.
Now we are just concentrating on cleaning up small routines and building endurance as well as strength. We cannot wait to put those glittered suits back on however, only one week!
We are sure you are curious as to what we look like, well its alright to stop holding your breath, the videos are here!

The Lyons have marked their territory

Hello All,

We just had our first meet of the season, and what a show. It was a home meet, and the turnout was fantastic. Not only did we have great swims, we took first in overall points. The results are as follows

Team: First
Trios:
First: Butera, Chils and Montes
Second: Strasmore, Cordo and Swinkin
Duets:
First: Butera and Chils
Second: Cordo and Swinkin
Solos:
First: Montes
Second: Strasmore

The meet was an overall success, and we really came together as a team and focused on what needed to be done. Of course, there is still work to be done, but looking back, im not sure any of us would have changed much about the meet. One down, seven to go. Get stoked!
