Gwinnett Aquatics Seniors Wrap up Long Course 2024
7/30 - The last nine swimmers wrapped up the 24 long course season this past weekend at two of the top senior meets of the year. The Futures meet was in Huntsville, AL while the Georgia Senior State Champs were in Athens.
Baylor Stanton led the way at Futures scoring all six of his events, winning three. Collier Stanton and Hannah-Claire Jowers also scored four times to make this quite the power trio.
At State it was a very different experience with fully half of the group of six at their first ever Senior State Champs. 
Nonetheless four of them, Nate Beeney, Jack Dunbar, Sarah Heppe and Brandon Noble all scored.
Along the way Baylor picked up another team record and Jimmy Wang picked up his first even AA time! Collier and Brandon were 100% best times.
Now everyone gets a couple weeks off before we start it up all over again. Pre-season 2024-25 starts August 12! Regular schedule starts Sept 9 with the first meet just 4 weeks later.
Ga⚡Ga Seventh at Age Group State Champs!
7/17 - Gwinnett Aquatics took seventh overall this weekend at the Georgia Age Group State Champs, third in the Medium Teams division (against much larger teams, and even beating all but one of the teams from the Large Teams Division).
Like last year, scoring was shared by a large group of swimmers. We had fourteen swimmers score, almost as many as last year just not quite as highly. This is actually a great achievement as so many of those top swimmers from last year are now in the bottom of their age groups. Led by our top scorer Ernesto Santiesteban-Pizarro we had seven swimmers with top ten finishes. Others were Kate Breiding, Emily Hardy, Jude Stanton, Ella Wells, and Cole Wright. Also scoring were Eddie El Osta, Cate Joyce, Aliana McCann, Riley Pynn, Vincent Tuck, Emery Wells, and Benicio Zimmerman, who now heads off to Texas! :-(
But the real catalyst for our high finish were our great relays with over 35 swimmers getting in on the scoring action. That included two relays that broke team records. Breiding, Hardy, Joyce, and Brianna Exil broke the 13-14 200 medley and Cameron Jones, Justin Bennett, Nic Ramdeo, and Andy Zhu broke the 200 free relay.
On top of all that Hardy and Wright earned their first AAA (All-Star) times (Cole's first ever!), while Joyce, Stanton, Bri Exil and Andy Zhu picked up their first ever AA's and Zimmerman got his first ever A times. In addition Alex Matveev all got his first state cut.
Now it will be the Senior swimmer's turn as most of them start their State and Futures Champs this weekend. Everyone else now has a break and we look forward to seeing them back for preseason August 12.
