Gold Medal Swimmers Shine at Senior State

JoAnna Woodward

Gold Medal swimmers achieve several best times as well as new cuts for Sectionals and Futures to win the meet! Here are the reviews:

SENIOR 2

Senior 2 had an exceptional Senior State Meet. For many in the group, this was the last meet of the long course season. We’re incredibly proud of how swimmers stayed focused, relaxed, and ready to race throughout the long weekend. Overall, 84% of Senior 2 swimmers had at least one best time - congratulations!! For those who have Regionals, Sectionals, or AG State, we’re excited to cheer you on and see even more fast swims! Congratulations everyone on a great season and all of your hard work.
