On Saturday, December 8, and Sunday, December 9, 2018, the Morrison Seahorses swam in the 3rd Annual Orca Frostbite Invite at Rock Island High School. Ten Seahorses made the trip and came home with a lot of hardware. Schyon Drolema swam a new Regional qualifying time in the 200 Butterfly. Sadie and Sydney Norman, Schyon Drolema, and Gracen Harmon broke a 34-year-old Seahorse record in the 400 Freestyle Relay by 14 seconds!
