Congratulations Water Polo Players 2009

Congratulations to the CHS 2009 Water Polo Varsity, JV, and Freshman teams.

Hard work and spirited play showed itself in one of the best seasons ever. To watch the dedicated work and thrilling games from the standing-room-only deck was a thrill.

Great Job by All!

Now is a good time to consider how you want to stay in the water and improve the great shape you are in.

Swimming with the Barracudas is one way to prepare for the CHS swim season and improve your shape for water polo.

Here is an amended Fee Schedule for H.S. Development Late Registration 11/09/09:

• Swimming full time thru January 31 (H.S. begins February 1); 1 payment of $375.00 (or pro-rated based on return date)

• *Swimming part time thru Jan. 31 is not recommended for performance but is accommodated: Fee is $50 per month for 1-2 session week and is due as one payment.

• Swimming full time thru League Championships; 2 payments, 1 due 11/09/09 = $425.00 (or pro-rated based on return date); 1 due 1/01/10 = $400.00 (or pro-rated based on return date)

• Swimming full time thru Summer Season; 2 payments; 1 due 11/09/09 = $600 (or pro-rated based on return date); 1 due 1/01/10 = $600 (or pro-rated based on return date)

Stay wet!

End of Season Banquet: CHS 2009



Five straight MTAL Championships. 100 Wins for Coach Kohrs as head coach of CHS. Three straight undefeated years... and more. Swimmers, Divers, Coaches, Parents, and Volunteers all have a great deal to be proud of.

There are too many people to thank for the success of the 2009 season without missing someone. Thanks to the many efforts by all who participated. It does take whole "village" to run a swim team.

Next post look for the YouTube link for the end of season Video/Slide show that crashed...

Congratulations to all Seniors (and their parents). May the journey ahead be joyous.

New Info for Pasta Feed

From Cynthia Hertlein:

As the Coach has let the boys know that there will be a very short practice on Friday please let everyone know that the pasta dinner will be at 5:30! (Not right after practice)

Let's encourage all the boys to attend!

Don't Forget

The pasta feed is tomorrow night (Friday) before League Championships on Saturday. It will begin right after practice and will be ending early to allow the boys time to go home, shave and get rest before the big meet.

The Pasta Feed will be at 49 Via Milpitas, Carmel Valley. The Hertleins will expect the boys and their coaches right after practice. Non-drivers should talk to their teammates (drivers must be of age to drive other students) or parents about getting rides out to the Carmel Valley Village.

Good luck on Saturday!
