[quote=Anonymous]D1 tribute here. I used to think our goal was to avoid relegation, but not so sure that’s actually a “bad thing.” We have—by far—the most enjoyable D1 experience because our parents are pretty sane, the team reinforces encouragement & support for teammates, the pool is lovely, and there’s a decent emphasis on fun. We have a number on friends and winter teammates on Chesterbrook, Tuckahoe, and Overlee. Individually, most of these kids & parents are awesome, kind, respectful, etc. The championship mentality at these pools breeds excellent swimming, but turns normal NOVA Type As into super-crazed swimmers & swim parents for 6 weeks in the summer. Like turning into a vampire after being bitten by a bat. On July 30th, they’ll all turn back into normal high-achievers. If we stay in D1, we welcome whichever team wants to party with us at the bottom. [/quote]
