Today she had to choose between the two sports for the first time. Tryouts for the Midwest Water Polo Olympic Development Team are tomorrow (cost $100 + $85 membership -coach said she will make the team). It's 4 weekends of intensive training followed by the Regional Tournament in March (cost $700
plus hotels etc). The same weekend as USA Swimming state championships.
She chose polo, athough we are waiting to get confirmations that they are OK with her not being a citizen
For now swim season is going well, she missed the state cut in the IM by .8 of a second this week, but there are plenty more meets to go and she almost equalled her personal best -which was swum tapered and in her "magic suit"
