There was a meeting this past week for all who were interested in competing. "lt was a very good turnout," Treml said. According to Treml, two juniors and mostly underclassmen attended the meeting. There were l 7 in total at the meeting, which is more than double the seven girls involved in last years swim club.
Junior Christina Callahan attended the meeting as well. Callahan has been swimming for 13 years and has taken a break for the past two. Although she was not involved with the club this past year, she was familiar with its record.
"Last year they came close to beating Kings College and Arcadia University," Callahan said. "l'd like it ifwe could beat them this year." Although she hopes that the team is victorious, she has her own goals of getting back into the sport.
Treml anticipates that her work for the team will be beneficial. "I really want to come back to it after I graduate and I hope it grows as a sport here at Cabrini." Treml said.
So far there are five meets scheduled for the team: two in November, two in January, and an invitational in Feruary. The team is going to start official practices within the next few weeks that are from 6:00 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. and run Monday through Friday.
