Gators Back in the Pool at FRST Meet of the Fall

What a great kickoff to the season! The Gators were out in full force with 25 athletes competing at the FRST Meet of the Fall at Franklin. We had a nice balance of new and experienced swimmers in the pool and their hard work from the first month of practices is already showing. Highlights from the meet are below. Please note that 2022 - 2023 championship time standards have not been posted yet by Indiana Swimming so we can’t note if new championship cuts were achieved yet.
