Gold Medal Swimmers make a splash at Sectionals!
Gold Medal swam competitively at Mt. Hood Community College in Oregon with one of the youngest teams at the meet. GM swimmers did exceptionally well in their distance events, and overall, our team placed 18th. We had many first time swimmers at their first Sectionals, and the meet was a great venue to introduce swimmers to the next level. Congrats to all swimmers on their great swims!
