JV Swimmers Wrap-Up Season at JV Conference Meet

On Tuesday, October 29, the Whippet Swimmers started off our Championship season at JV Conference in Elkhorn. What an incredible way to end the season for some of our athletes!

Marijose Verduzco (14th) and Laken DePorter (15th) placed in the top 16 in the 50 Freestyle.
