CSP Wins their 7th Ozark A Championship in a row!

Mark Imig

CSP swam away this past weekend with their 7th Straight Ozark A Championship!  No team in Ozark has won an Ozark Team Championship Meet more than 6 years in a row, so this was quite an accomplishment for our team and swimmers as well.  CSP went in to the meet with 112 swimmers attending, 636 individual events and all relays filled.   All of those were ranked first as well.

Not only did the team win this past weekend, there were also Ozark Coach of the Years being voted on during the meet by the coaches in Ozark.  CSP had a clean sweep of those with Coach Lanette Imig being voted on as the first ever Ozark Developmental Coach of the Year.  Coach Mark Imig was voted as the Age Group Coach of the Year and Coach David McCrary was voted as the Ozark Senior Coach of the Year.  This is a reflection on the great job that all of our athletes and assistant coaches do as well.

CSP also had a number of officials who worked the meet. Many of these officials were working sessions that their swimmers were not swimming in, which is always appreciated.  Thanks so much for volunteering your time during this long weekend!

As a Team, CSP not only won the meet, but we also scored the most points on both the Girls and Boys side as well.  Our Age Groups were also outstanding, winning the 10 & Under Boys, 11 – 12 Boys, 13 – 14 Girls and 13 – 14 Boys, while finishing in second in the 10 & Under Girls, 11 – 12 Girls, 15 & Over Boys and 15 & Over Girls.  No other team in Ozark placed in the Top 3 in each Age Group!
