Heading down to Austin for the state swim meet that runs Friday and Saturday, the school hosted a send-off for the boys’ and girls’ swim team during Thursday’s advisory period. 10 swimmers qualified for the state meet with several expected to make a run at a state championship.

Wingspan’s Catie Reeves caught up with several swimmers before they hit the road.
