Marlins Top Swimming Meet of Champions

Memorial Pool team swims to excellence.

The top swimmers from 19 towns converged on New Providence Thursday for the New Jersey Summer Swim League Meet of Champions.

These swimmers ages 7 to 18, were from four separate divisions and had competed in their own Divisional Meet on Monday to get here -- those with the fastest times across all of those meets made it to the championship meet.

Millburn sent about 25 swimmers to the meet this year, said Coach Kelly Fitzmaurice.

“We did really well this season,” she said. “And they had a good meet today.”

The Meet of Champions was hosted by the New Providence Piranhas at the team’s facility which has two pools with lap lanes – one for warming up while other races are going on.

It's a meet for individual swimmers, not for teams. Swimmers compete against each other and against their own personal best times.

But, for fun – and something the teams love – officials tally up all the points scored by the individuals and rank the teams accordingly.

This the Westfield Marlin captured 1st place overall and for both the boys and girls teams.
