The team competes both regionally and across the state of Maryland. Over 120 swimmers were a part of the team this summer who went on to compete in the Delmarva Championship meet in July and placed seventh out of the twenty-three teams that competed . Several long time standing team records were broken by both individuals and relay teams. Standouts were Gracie Coker, who broke the 1999 11-12 Girls 50 Yard Butterfly record with a time of 30.32s, 11-12 Girls 200 Yard Medley Relay 2:10.29s G. Coker/T. Harner/E.
