Commerce Swimmers Look Ahead To District

“We have a lot of kids that are doing really well,” said Minish. “Our new swimmers are doing real well. What has happened to our team was that when we started we had a large group of older kids who have since graduated and left and now we don’t have many older kids. So, we have just had to rebuild our team.”

The Tiger Sharks are about halfway through this summer’s swim season, with the District meet a little over a week away on July 11.
Minish added that the swimmers are “practicing hard and heavy” for the meet, which will decide which swimmers will compete in the state meet in Tifton later in the month.

During the Invitational last Saturday in Dacula, Commerce had 32 swimmers compete, mostly in the novice division.

The invitational allows the younger swimmers to work on improving their times and face a lot of other swimmers from across northeast Georgia.
