We had our first intersquad swim meet on Saturday, October 23rd. In the beginning of the week I divide the team in half and the rest is up to the swimmers. They choose the captain, line-up, mascot, cheers and anything else you can think of.
Here are a couple of videos from the meet
The White Yetties!

Even though the Red Cats won in the water with a high score of 62 to 32. The White Yetties won the points for their creative cheer. Below is another one of their cheers...

Swim Season Has Begin
Yesterday was the first day of practice for the 2010-2011 season!
This year we have 11 women and 10 men with 5 new female and 6 new male swimmers. Last year we finished the season with a 1st place win by the men and a 2nd place win by the women at our conference championships. The team is stronger, faster and smarter and I believe we will be as successful if not better than last year!
The team already did a team event before season began with our annual Car Wash to raise money for our Florida 2012 trip and to buy technical suit for our championship meets. Below are a few pictures.
This is Britta Kilbourn she is one of our recruits from Scotia, NY. She will be a studying Pre-Med.
This is Courtney Cummings from Monrovia, MD. She will be a Sociology Major.

Honors Convocation
It is a tradition at Wells to have 3 convocations - Opening Convocation celebrates the beginning of the academic year and is the seniors’ first chance to wear their academic gowns. The Collegiate Cabinet plans the Convocation that opens the spring semester and welcomes students, faculty and staff back to campus after the intersession. And finally last night's Honors Convocation is where most annual academic award presentations for student’s achievements are made.
This year we had two Senior swimmer's earn recognition.
Tiffany has been an outstanding student and has earned the Kathryn S. Maloney Scholar Athlete Award for having the highest cumulative GPA over the past 3 years that she has been on the swim team over all the other student-athletes. Tiffany was also inducted into the Phi Beta Kappa Society which is an honor typically conferred upon fewer than 10% of each graduating class. Students do not apply, they must be selected by the Phi Beta Kappa chapter as a whole.
Kelsey was nominated by the Dean of Students and was selected into Who's Who Among Students in American College and Universities which is a nationally recognized organization.
T-16 days until graduation
