Season Outlook

Our swim team heads into the season with energy, depth, and clear goals. With returning upperclassmen leading the way and promising newcomers joining the lineup, we expect strong performances especially in qualifiying our girls and boys relays to state in Canton. Consistency, teamwork, and steady time drops will set the tone as we build toward championship meets.

Meets we look forward to competing at a high level start with the 42^nd annual Southwest Ohio High School Swimming and Diving Classic, followed by GMC's, then qualifying for Sectionals, Districts, and State.

The team aims to qualify more swimmers for conference and state meets while continuing to set personal bests throughout the season.

With a hardworking roster and a strong team culture, this year’s group is prepared to compete with confidence and heart.
