Coach Rep:
Cypress will be obtaining an additional pool for warm up but no shuttle provided. In the future a suggestion has been made that the Janet Evans Invitational and AB Champs do not run at the same time. Talk of the possibility of introducing a new warm up protocol at the beginning of the meets. Perhaps the Host team and the larger teams offer to swim before the warm-up session which would allow less confusion during the scheduled warm-up before the meet. The host team could also assign lanes to each team or the have the smaller teams buddy up.
