Krissia competed at the State 3A Swimming Championships held this weekend at BYU. She'd had a strong season; this meet was no exception. On Friday, Krissia competed in the 50 Freestyle and she was the ONLY freshman to make it to the finals. She ended up taking 8th place overall and actually might have medaled, except that she was recovering from a bad cold and felt like she couldn't breathe during the last 15 meters of the race. Yesterday was the 100 meter Backstroke, Krissia's strongest event. She ended up earning a medal by taking 5th place and improved her time by nearly a second - setting another school record in this event! We are so proud of her and can't wait to see how maturity and experience will impact her swimming in the coming years. That is, if I can handle watching her compete for another 3 years - I felt like I was having a combined anxiety/heart attack during yesterday's race!

Yay Krissia, you are such a great swimmer! I love the fact that she was the only freshman that made it to finals...that really does say something about her talent!
Hooray for Krissia. Maybe one day I'll get to see her compete.
