BASDT Halloween Invitational

I want to thank all of those who weathered the storm and participated in the meet on Saturday and hope everyone had a safe journey home. The BASDT hosted a great meet and finished right on the timeline.

14 Conroe Diving Club members and coaches Bill Travis and Danny Sautural attended the meet on Saturday. The meet was hosted by the Bay Area Stars Diving Team and held at the Pearland Recreation Center in Pearland, TX. 90 divers and eight teams from Houston, Dallas and San Antonio attended the meet with the Conroe Diving Club finishing second overall in the team standing behind host team Bay Area Stars. CDC earned 19 total medals including 10 gold, six silver and 3 bronze. There were many outstanding performances and I was very proud of the kids.

Brady Gottula and Logan Thomas earned individual high point winners for the Conroe Diving Club on Saturday. Katie Kowalik and Logan Thomas captured double gold medals while Kenzi Leslie, Brady Gottula, Megan Milbaum, Bree Sautural, Michelle Roberts and Brooke Rupp brought home individual gold. Silver medals were earned by Kenzi Leslie, Lily Bonzon, Brady Gottula, Bree Sautural, Megan Milbaum and Henely Dawson while teammates Calie Crofford, Ashlynne Reynolds and Ella Dawson captured individual bronze. Toni Harper just missed a bronze medal in both the 1 and 3 meter events.

This was a fun meet for the kids (with the exception of the very high gutters at the diving end of the pool) and coaches Bill and Danny enjoyed the event. It is important for the future champions and novice kids to participate in these events to help with experience and gain insight about the sport and make new friendships. Thanks again to all the parents who made the trip and helped with an enjoyable experience.
