The temperature was in the low 90s on June 30, when the three-way swim meet involving FAST (Fluvanna Aquatic Sports Team), The Elks Swim Team and the Louisa Gators Swim Team got started. Most of the spectators at the Gators home pool were able to find shade and the swimmers were in and out of the water, so no one was too severely affected by the heat. The Gators’ pool is located on Industrial Drive just off Rt. 208, between Louisa and Mineral.
As previously reported, the Jefferson Swim League (JSL) has changed its meet structure due to the pandemic. This meet was for the age 11 and over swimmers. FAST Head Coach Mike DiFazio reports that FAST has about 60 swimmers this year. DiFazio is assisted by Coaches Brennan King and Emma DiFazio.
