The Big Sandy swim team went to Cut Bank this last week, where they swam in an outdoor pool compared to the weekend before at Shelby. The weather was around 60 degrees when events started, and got to a high of 69 degrees both days of the meet. There were nine teams at this swim meet including Big Sandy. They competed against swimmers from the Bitterroot, Chester, Chinook, Choteau, Columbia Falls, Conrad, Cut Bank, and Shelby.
Like last week, I will only be posting the swimmers that made it to the finals in their events, and the points that they scored for their team. Here are the results from Cut Banks meet:

Neither coach was able to attend the swim meet, however parents mentioned how wonderful the team did helping each other. The older kids took their leadership roles seriously and helped coach the little ones on the team.
