NJ State saw rare perfect weather & a wetsuit legal swim for the Olympic Race.  Although most of our Team did not wear their wetsuits Sunday & that didn't slow down Allyson Thompson who was 1st out of the water & held on to win her age group.  Lisa Kall & Ryan Matheson also won their age groups in the Sprint race with impressive results.  Others who made the podium were Christine Mackrides 2nd, Clare Daniels 2nd, Tom Dillon 3rd & Rev Rhodes 3rd.  USAT officials were out in full force & were very strictly handing out penalties.  Suzi Beck & Tom Beerbower were harshly penalized in Tom's case it kept him off the podium after he had a tremendous race.  The team competition was stacked this year & we fell to 4th place overall.  Thank you to all the members that came out to race & Socialize.  see all results at link below:
