Let’s GO RAIDERS and bring some hardware home!
Here is some information about today’s meet.
The Kansas 6A State Swim & Dive Championship meet will be held at the SMSDAC on Friday, 2/19. No spectators are allowed. The meet will be streamed on NFHS and results will be updated in real-time on the MeetMobile app (including team scores).
Here is a link to the full schedule, heat sheet, and results for the meet.
I started a private GroupMe Text Group for the parents for today’s meet. If we can’t be in person to cheer on our kiddos … at least we can cheer with each other via text.
If you are interested in joining, download the GroupMe app and then send me a text with your name and phone number to 913-579-9511 and I’ll add you to the Group (SMS State Swim & Dive).
It’s time to get ready for STATE!
Here is this week’s practice schedule and information about the State Meet on Friday.
The Kansas 6A State Swim & Dive Championship meet will be held at the SMSDAC on Friday, 2/19. No spectators are allowed, but it will be streamed on NFHS Network. You can also follow the meet on the MeetMobile app.
(More details including State Heat Sheet and GroupMe Text for Parents – ’cause we got to find a way to cheer for all of our kids somehow – forthcoming.)
PLEASE NOTE: There are two different orders for Boys State Swim & Dive Apparel.
The Booster Club ordered these shirts in advance so they could be printed and delivered before the State Meet. (Your son has already let Coach Berg know their size.) Unfortunately, due to the tight timeline, there will not be additional shirts available for purchase.
These shirts will be worn by the boys on Friday at the State Meet.
With that being said, the Booster Club does not have the funds available to cover the cost of all of the shirts.
Therefore we are asking you to pay “after the fact” for your son’s shirt. The cost is $16.56 (which includes the convenience fee).
Due to COVID concerns, there will be NO Kansas State Swim Apparel sold at the meet.
However, they are allowing schools to “pre-order” apparel and it will be “delivered” to them on the day of the meet. You are able to purchase additional t-shirts for yourself or other family members with this order.
This means the Boosters we will need to place and pay for one order with KSHAA and that order is due on February 16th.
Here are the costs (these do not include the convenience fee):
All orders and payment must be made by noon on February 16th to ensure your kiddo gets their merchandise. Thank you for supporting your kiddo!
This has been such an awesome season and the future is so bright for South Swim & Dive. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Kelly Snyder at 913-579-9511.
It’s time to get ready for STATE!
Congratulations to this year’s Shawnee Mission South State Team. Due to COVID Protocols, they will be the only members practicing this week.

The “End of the Season + State Send Off Meeting” will be held for ALL SWIMMERS AND DIVERS on February 16th in the Black Box Theater from 5 – 6 pm on February 16th.
While parents will not be allowed at this meeting, it will be live-streamed for viewing. Links and agenda are forthcoming.
