This might be my favorite photograph from two days of swimming. It’s Logan High School’s Timmy Bates on the starting block for the state championship Mens 400 Freestyle Relay, which Logan won. Here are some others from Saturday:

Mackenzie Anderson of Logan.

Celebrating their win in the Womens 200 Yard Freestyle Relay are (left to right) Wasatch High School’s Mary Kathryn Brown, Veronica Hunsaker, Kristen Anderson and Erin Wynn.

Not sure who this is.

Logan swimmers celebrate their state championship in the Mens 400 Freestyle Relay. Team was: Luke Monday, Bennett Purser, Timmy Bates, Michael Kane.

My camera loses focus just as Luke Monday starts to lose all seriousness.
