Flordia Bound

Kyle and I went to Dallas this weekend for him to compete in the AAU Red, White, and Blue National qualifier. 

I didn't really understand this meet at first, but the short version is every Memorial Day weekend AAU diving hosts the Red, White, and Blue Nationals meet.  The country is divided up into Red, White, and Blue sections and the top 6 divers from each division get to compete.  So this past weekend was the qualifying meet to go to Coral Springs, Florida for Memorial Day.

Kyle started bright and early Saturday morning (we were up at 6:15) and placed 4th on 3 meter.

I was busy talking (surprise, surprise) and forgot to take a podium picture.  But I did get this one with some of his team mates.


We went to lunch (Georgi went with us to Dallas) and then came back to dive 1 meter in the afternoon.

Kyle had one of his best meets ever on 1 meter and was sitting in 2nd place until the 4th round.
He finished 3rd and was very happy.

Clearly, 5th place was also very happy.
