It's official...
The NCR Dolphins are the Undefeated Champions of the 2023 PMSL's Division F!

And boy, did they do it in style, racking up a whopping 402 points!
NCR 402
TH: 326
BNS: 174
OH: 127
FC: 45

Not only did the team cap off the season in an impressive manner, most of our swimmers bested their seed times...and not by a little...1, 2, 3, 5 and even 9 seconds!  The Dolphins came to swim and swim hard they did!  

The Divisional Meet brings the best of the best (sir!) from the season together and so the competition is fierce.  Several events were won or lost by less than a tenth of a second!  Even with that, two NCR Dolphin swimmers walked away with Triple Blue: Sophia Jones and Patrick Willis 

Complete meet results are available on our 2023 Results page.

Winning an event at the Divisional Meet comes with another reward: automatic entry into the PMSL All-Star Meet.  The following are headed to "the show":

19 NCR Dolphins will represent us in 23 individual events and 2 relays! 
​All I have left to say is...WOW!

...well, one more thing...The above list may grow, as once the Division winners are seated, the League fills out the All-Star meet with swimmers based on event times...and we have a few second place swimmers that might get the nod...stay tuned!

With the regular dual meet season at a close, we have one more big Division F event...the Divisional Meet!  Rules for the entries to the Divisional meet are special, so unfortunately not all of our Dolphins will be able to represent the team.  There are 35 swimmers who will..  The names and events they are entered can be found on our 2023 Divisional Swimmers page

Congratulate and encourage these swimmers!  If they win at the Divisional Meet they qualify for the PMSL All-Star Meet!  Let's Go NCR!

Your NCR Dolphins are undefeated!  We traveled south to visit the Bannister Barracudas for our final dual meet of the 2023 season and came away with our fifth win! 

NCR: 297
BNS: 169

Next up, the 2023 Division F Divisional Meet.  Stay tuned here to see the swimmers who qualified to represent the Dolphins at this penultimate meet of the season!

Today the NCR Dolphins were scheduled to swim against the Oxon Hill Hammerheads in Fort Washington, however, the Oxon Hill Recreation Club pool pump has been finicky this season, so the Hammerheads asked if the meet could be held at the New Carrollton Recreation pool.  The Dolphins agreed to host.  Who wouldn't want a meet at NCR!

The Dolphins notched their fourth win of the season, beating the Hammerheads by a score of 341 to 90.  Complete results are available on the website under the 2023 results page.

This week's "Triple Blue" winners (won all three individual events):

Sofia Jones (NCR)
Sydney Chase (NCR)
Arianna ​Biondi (NCR)
Emma Biondi (NCR)
Kweli Able (OH)
Morris Fisher (NCR)
Patrick Willis (NCR)
Isaiah Willis (NCR)

The fun isn't over, though!  More swimming tonight with the Marathon! 

The first away meet of the 2023 season was a whopping 3/4 of a mile drive to meet the newest team in the PrinceMont League - the Fountain Club Swim Team.  Our new neighbors were gracious hosts and we enjoyed the friendly competition during a well run meet.  The score was a bit lopsided, but that can be attributed to the fact that as a new team, the Fountain Club only had a few swimmers.  If the enthusiasm displayed by their team and their community are an indication, they won't be small for long!

The final score of the meet was:

NCR: 343
FC: 37

Detailed results are available on the 2023 Meet Results page

The Triple Blue Affair
Six NCR swimmers racked up 3 individual event wins:

Sofia Jones
Arianna Biondi

Patrick Willis

Congratulations on another win for the NCR Dolphins!
