The Norcross Swimming and Diving teams had their first meet this morning at West Gwinnett Aquatic Center. We started out our season strong with a win over Seckinger High School. In the first 3 weeks of practice, we've made significance progress in endurance, sportsmanship, racing skills and precision diving. We are so excited for where this team is headed this season.

We want to specially recognize Aaron Ojeda. Aaron is a Junior at Norcross who qualified for the Gwinnett County Championship meet in the 500 yard freestyle in his very first time competing for us. This is a tremendous accomplishment. If you know Aaron, please congratulate him. We are so happy to have him on the swim team this year. He demonstrates excellent sportsmanship in practice and at meets. Aaron's positive attitude and coachability is an example for all of our student athletes.
