Well, we all had a great time in our beachy wear at the 2015 Wavemaker Meet.

Ninety-eight UVPCS swimmers were out there making waves and swimming fast long course early in the Long Course season.

Some of the highlights were:
Jemma Stevens came up big with 4 new AAA qualifying times;
Nolan Crisp made his first AAA time in the 50 FL in 41.17s and is one of Pacific Coast Swimming`s first 8 year olds to do so!! Congrats Nolan following in his sisters footsteps!
