Rude Named CVST May SOM
The CVST coaching staff has named Savannah Rude (10) as the May Swimmer of the Month. For the month, the ten year old Silver/Gold practice group member swam in three meets, showed consistent improvement, and conquered two new challenges. Savannah started off the month in the Dick Smith Invitational at the Carlouel Yacht Club, by swimming to best times in two out of her three events, the 50 yard Butterfly and 50 yard Freestyle. Five anxious days later at home in the Carrollwood Country Club Aquatic Center against the Tampa Yacht and Country Club, Savannah followed her outstanding performance by swimming her first 500 yard Freestyle and to best times in both her 50 yard Backstroke and 50 yard Breaststroke. Two weeks later at home against the Hunter’s Green Country Club, Savannah swam to another three out of four best times in her 50 yard Freestyle and 50 yard Breaststroke and after a confident week of practice gained by her first 500 yard experience, Savannah swam her first 1000 yard distance and satisfied her goal of swimming in the sixteen minute range by racing to a time of 16:57.49. Overall, Savannah dropped a total of 6.92 seconds, improved in all four of the competitive strokes and made an impressive debut in her middle distance and distance events.
Way to go Savannah and keep up the good work.
