Saturday the Caro Tigers attended the Tri-Cities Championship Meet.  The meet was an all day event starting at 8:00 am and finishing around 7:00 pm, and was held at the SVSU Gerstacker Regional Aquatics Center. Teams in attendance were Alma, Bay City Central, Bay City Western, Caro, Essexville Garber, John Glenn, Midland High, Midland Dow, Saginaw Heritage.  This was a great opportunity for the Tigers to compete in the pool where their finals will be held at the end of the season.  As well as swim against some schools not in the ISC league.  Sawyer Ross tied a Heritage swimmer in the prelims for the 50 Freestyle.  A swim off event was held between the two swimmers to see who would swim in the final event that afternoon. Ross came out strong for the win (and a new PR) securing his spot in the finals and Hyping up the Tigers going into the finals.  The Tigers swam very well in the finals with many events placing much better than when they were seeded.  The Tigers finished ahead of Midland High and John Glenn with 166 points to grab 7th.
