“Things didn’t go as we had planned, but Pomperaug swam a great meet and we got a lot of really good swims as a result. We are really excited to get back in the pool and use this setback as motivation to end the season strong,” Osborne said. “We want to give a special shout-out to our divers who have been doing such a great job all season, but especially tonight going one, two, four.
