CONGRATULATIONS MAKOS
NVSL All Stars 2011 was filled with lots exciting races and
extremely fast swims. Fair Oaks' Anthony Grimm established a
new NVSL record in the 8 & Under Boys 25 Meter Butterfly,
posting a time of 16.80, beating the previous mark of 17.10 set by
Austin Patteson of Fairfax in 2002.
Anthony will start his second season on our MAKO team. Austin Patteson just graduated from our MAKO team, and will continue swimming for Coach Peter Ward on the GMU Collegiate Swim Team this fall. Too Cool!
ADDITIONAL ALL-STARS
Dillion Jaing- RSTA League
Hanna Sun - MCSL League
Good Job!
