Junior Gabriella Martinez Reyes said, “I loved seeing all my friends and meeting the new swimmers! It was a hard practice since I only swam for one season in the past, but it was worth it to be a part of the team again. I’m most excited for the meets and cheering on the team.”
The first swim meet of the season is scheduled for Aug. 27 at the YMCA. The Mustang swimmers will compete against Parrish and Manatee High Schools.
