Thank you to our sponsor for the Seton Homecoming Invitational:
Lobster Maine-ia
Fresh from the trap to your table! Fresh seafood is the Kenna family business. We are the DC Metro Area’s finest source of fresh seafood and Maine lobster.
Below is all the information you need for our Seton Homecoming Invitational Meet at the Freedom Center on Saturday, December 19, 2026. Please read it carefully.
This meet will feature alumni swimming with us as exhibition entries in the 200 Medley Relay and 50 Free. We are also offering the opportunity to swim 50 Fly in some exhibition heats. This will count towards your event total, but it will not count in the Meet scores.

Entries coming prior to the Meet
Remember that my philosophy for entries during the month of December is to get kids in the maximum number of different events I can. It is impossible to do for everyone, but I try to get as many kids as possible to swim all eight (8) individual events during the season. For the new swimmers, you can pretty much count on swimming Breaststroke and Butterfly this week, which should line up nicely with the stroke progressions we are doing in practice.
