Hey Stingrays,

Yesterday was the qualifier for the Gwinnett Parks and Rec state team and boy did we do incredible! There was so much that happened yesterday that I was literally jumping at each of our swimmers' finishes. To give you a taste of why I was so excited: We finished first, second, and third in the 11-12 boys Backstroke, first and second in the 15-18 girls Backstroke, and we had some insane time drops across the board. I could not be more proud.

Without further ado, the Stingrays going on to the State meet will be Tyson Brown, Perry Foster, Sophie Heim, Katherine Nguyen, Josephine Rudd, Brody Schroeder, Tyler Schroeder, and Aaron Smith. Congratulations to you all and good luck in Cumming this July!

This was and always has been a very competitive meet. I look forward to having more of my Stingrays next year to show what we got!

-Coach Thomas
