The 2008 regular season of the Coastal Carolina Aquatic Association heads into its final week with the champions of the CCAA's three leagues almost decided.
The James Island Stingrays completed a busy week by beating the Fort Johnson Dolphins for third win in four days on July 3 and clinched at least a tie for the Blue League championship. The Stingrays are 7-0, and have already defeated the Blue League's second place team, the Newington Tiger Sharks. James Island can wrap up the Blue League title and finish an undefeated season by beating the Federal Armed Services Team on July 8.
In the Red League, the CCAA's only other unbeaten team, the Coosaw Creek Crocodiles, also clinched at least a tie for the regular season championship with a victory over the Killer Whales from Northbridge Terrace. The Crocodiles hope to wrap up the Red League title when they travel to the Parkshore Piranhas on July 8.
The Daniel Island Flying Fish moved one step closer to securing a championship in their first season in the White League. Daniel Island defeated the Phish from the Country Club of Charleston on July 1, and will host the Longpoint Sailfish in the White League finale on July 8.
CCAA coaches and team reps are reminded that entries for this year's CCAA Championship Meet are due on Friday, July 11. E-mails containing entry files and instructions were sent out on July 5. All team reps (or substitutes) and interested coaches are encouraged to attend the pre-City Meet meeting at 6:30 PM on Wednesday, July 16, at the JCC.
The CCAA is composed of 23 teams from the tri-county area surrounding Charleston, South Carolina.
Over 2600 swimmers from 4 to 18 years old represent their neighborhoods, clubs, and other organizations in friendly (but exciting!) competition. CCAA teams began practicing in April and May and compete against each other in dual meets in June and July.
