The chase for third place comes down to one meet!
Following a stellar performance against Northampton last week, the Bullfrogs declared their desire to finish the season in third after defeating their buddies from Hatboro on Tuesday. "The Pond" was full of enthusiasm, as it always is when Hatboro stops by, and the two teams went head to head most of the evening. Several races came down to the finish, creating a very exciting meet for the spectators. The Bullfrogs now look toward Bustleton and the final duel meet of the season. GO BULLFROGS!

First ever Inter-Divisional meet takes place between Brookside and Northampton Swim Teams.
Forget Barry Bonds and the chase for Hammerin' Hank's homerun record. Never mind about the Phillies reaching a 10,000 loss milestone. The Bullfrogs and Northampton made history yesterday by competing in the first ever inter-division meet last night at The Pond. Great races could be seen in almost every event. Not only to determine first and second, but also third and fourth positions. The Bullfrogs unleashed a flurry of transitional cheers that brought the capacity crowd to its feet. With Bullfrogs dancing behind the blocks, nothing could stop Brookside from winning this historic meet. WAY TO GO BULLFROGS!

THUNDER AND LIGHTNING IGNITES THE PSC-BROOKSIDE MEET.
The horrible weather that always seems to follow the PSC-Brookside meet made a lengthy appearance last night at "The Pond." After 15 events, lightning was spotted and the meet was shut down immediately. A storm that at first glance appeared to need only 10 minutes to pass, took an hour of meet time. Teammates passed the time by playing the game SIGNS and telling jokes. The meet resumed without another delay and concluded well after 10:00 pm. Spirits remained high all evening and the meet concluded with an amazing 50 fly by Bridget Kelly, Allie Borda, and Elizabeth Reeves.
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR BULLFROG WINNERS

ODD AGE, AQUA P, WARRINGTON, and NEWTOWN. THESE MEETS KICK OFF A WEEK CHOCK FULL OF FUN:)
The Bullfrogs of Brookside came out of the gate full speed ahead this week. After the longest pre-season in Brookside history, thanks to inclement weather and national celebrations, the Bullfrogs welcomed the 2007 competitive season with bang. The week began with two invitational meets. Twenty-four members of our squad traveled to Somerton for the Odd Age meet and Newtown for the annual Aqua Pentathlon. Several of our swimmers placed in the top 12, including a few top six finishes.
Monday and Tuesday featured two very exciting head to head match ups with Red Division powerhouses. The Dragons of Warrington hosted the Bullfrogs on Monday night and the Barracudas of Newtown traveled from the next town over to challenge Brookside on Tuesday evening. Each meet brought exhilaration and fun. The team focused on the details, showed their heart and determination, and came out victorious at the end of each night. WAY TO GO BULLFROGS!!
