Back at it for the 2022-2023 season, swim looks to dive deep in a meet against Heritage and Reedy. The team is using this meet as a practice meet for the crucial meets coming up.

Taking on Reedy, Centennial, and Memorial Thursday at the Bruce Eubanks Natatorium, the Redhawks swim team has two weeks from until the District 9-5A meet on Jan. 20.

“We are swimming this meet to get one more competition prior to our District meet,” head coach Nick Dion said. “It’s important for our guys to feel what it’s like to go fast one more time.”

Fresh off a two week break from school, Dion knows many members of the team didn’t stop training. 

“We had quite a few folks training over the break to put themselves in a good position for our championship season,” Dion said. “I expect us to use this meet as an opportunity to understand what we need to focus on headed into Districts.”
