"Everyone is doing so well; everyone is so motivated and supportive of each other," Kephart said.

These meets mark the approximate halfway point in the season and Schadt is pleased with the lookout. Now that he has a clearer view of the competition, he said both the men's and women's teams have a chance to win conference.

"It should be tight, but that is half the fun of it," Schadt said.

Schadt also said that they are on course for success in their practices.

They plan to add longer workouts during the Christmas season and transition to more speed in January and February to prepare for the Northwest Conference meet.

"We are just going to stay on course with the normal game plan," Schadt said. "It seems like the recipe we are using for the three groups is going just fine."

The swim team next travels to Florida to compete in the Jacob's Aquatic Center Invite on Jan. 6 before resuming NWC meets on Jan. 12 in Forest Grove, Ore., where they take on Pacific University.
