DART SWIMMERS OUTLAST SURVIVOR WEEK

You can almost be guaranteed that not many kids in Southern Utah spent their holiday break swimming nearly 44 miles in less than one week of two a day swim practices.  Known as Survivor Week, the DART Sharks whose home is at the Sand Hollow Aquatic Center in St. George Utah, did just that, including a 7:00 a.m. 3 1/2 hour practice New Years morning.  To top it off head swim coach Bob Floerchinger added additional drag to the swimmers during their workouts by having each of them wear tights.  The swimmers had a great time with the tights which was capped off by a crazy tights contest.  Many awards were given, as Sydney Zwick took top honors of being brave enough to wear the craziest tights in the water.  Three of the DART Swimmers earned the right to be crowned survivors:  Michael Pantelakis, Josh McPhie, and John McPhie made all the sets and challenges to earn the rightful title of "Survivor".  

If you find yourself around the pool you should congratulate the swimmers for a job well done.
