ISCA East Coast Elite Showcase
What's better than swimming? You guessed it...swimming outdoors! But where can us Midwesterners find an outdoor pool that isn't frozen during this time of year? The North Shore Aquatic Complex in St. Petersburg, Florida, that's where! This meet will be an excellent opportunity for national exposure where we will compete against athletes from all over the US, and did I mention it's in Florida? Qualifying standards can be found in the meet packet on our website. There are still no firm commitments required, but as we get through Championship season, we want you, and your swimmer(s) to keep these time standards and dates in mind.

This month’s Swimmer Spotlight goes to Vince Poortinga! Not only is he the parent of two amazing swimmers, Ella (Apex) and Naomi (Blaze), an excellent representative of our team as an official at swim meets, he is also an outstanding Masters swimmer. While many swimmers hang up their cap and goggles upon completing high school or collegiate swimming, Vince has continued to take on his passion for swimming as an adult and is an integral member of the small, but mighty, Alligator Aquatics Masters team. He displays his talents in the pool by always taking on challenging sets, showing his dedication and determination to always work hard. In January, he competed at a Masters swim meet, placing top 3 in his events! Go Vince!
