Hey @MUNathletics you should update your rosters on your website. The swim team roster is 2023-24 season.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@mikeanzano A thousand times, this!

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

I wonder if Aquam gets tired of continually having to provide quotes because they don’t put the prices on their website.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@mikeanzano 30-40 min per workout if I plan them one at a time the day of or night before. 20 min per if I do the whole week at once.

Seasonal plan takes several hours too.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

Do the swim off again, not tie again.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

In all my years of coaching, I’ve seen a lot of swim offs but I haven’t seen tie and then have two boys get back on the box immediately after, to do it again

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@Devin_Heroux How would it even work? Devil is in the details.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

Fantastic analogy.

[Mike Anzano @mikeanzano]

The success of your team depends on the environment you create.

Think of your culture as the soil.
Your swimmers the seeds.

@Dcutah @kylesockwell @PauleneFitchett We need more competition in this arena. Hytek being one of the only meet management apps is also brutal! Hello, the 1990s called and what their UI back.

@MaryElizabeth73 Hope the community, students and non-students, speak up to correct this error. I fully agree the facility is date and hard to maintain, but closure without a replacement plan? That’s going to have negative effects in the community.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

So disappointed to see this decision out of Acadia. The community impact will be far reaching!

Congratulations to our @brockswimming women's program cracking the USports Top 10 rankings for the first-time in a very long time (maybe ever... maybe since the 80s?) #WeAreBadgers

@Braden_Keith I’m assuming you’re rejecting these requests unless there are some extenuating circumstances.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@coach_SarahMac Been saying that for years.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

Hapgood needs to be removed from behind the bench for his remarks. Blaming a lack of security for his player attacking a fan and defending a violent sport thug!

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@miking330 @kylesockwell @Braden_Keith Sure they will……. lol.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@miking330 @kylesockwell @Braden_Keith Who are these odd creatures?

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

@kylesockwell @Braden_Keith This is the way.

[Christopher Mercer @CoachMercerNL]

Great feature today by @Jeremy_Eaton on the new pitch and track for @2025canadagames. Hoping for some aquatics updates soon as we have a LOT of anxious swimmers/families wondering how it’s going.
