🎉 Senior Night Celebration

We are also excited to invite you to Senior Night, July 9 at our Home Meet, where we’ll honor the incredible dedication and achievements of our graduating swimmers. These seniors have made a lasting impact on the Sharks, and we can’t wait to celebrate them with you!

Here are the amazing seniors we’re recognizing:

🦈 Cal Rice

Cal has been part of the Sharks for 13 seasons, including 4 years as a swimmer. He’s now in his second year as an assistant coach, after previously serving as a junior coach. Cal’s leadership and passion for the sport have inspired swimmers of all ages. This fall, he’s heading to Penn State University to major in Information Sciences and Technology (IST). We’re so proud of you, Cal!

🦈 Marisol Sims

Marisol has swum with the Sharks for 12 seasons and served as a junior coach in the summer of 2023. Her dedication and positive energy have been a cornerstone of our team. She will be attending the University of Indiana Bloomington, where she’ll study Business at the prestigious Kelley School of Business. Congratulations, Marisol!

🦈 Hrushi Poola

A Shark for 11 years, Hrushi has also given back as a junior coach for 3 seasons. His commitment to the team and mentorship of younger swimmers have been invaluable. Hrushi is off to Penn State University this fall. We’ll miss you, Hrushi, and wish you all the best!

🦈 Lucas Gabriel

Lucas has been a Shark for over 10 seasons and served as a junior coach for 2 seasons. His calm leadership and dedication have made a lasting impression. Lucas will be attending James Madison University (JMU) to pursue a degree in Nursing. Way to go, Lucas!

🦈 Josiah Powell

Josiah joined the Sharks 3 seasons ago and quickly became an integral part of the team—not just in the pool, but behind the camera! An avid photographer, Josiah has beautifully captured countless moments and memories for the Sharks. He will be attending Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA) this fall. Thank you for everything, Josiah!

Let’s come together to celebrate these amazing seniors and send them off with the love and support of their Shark family. We hope to see you there!

Go Sharks! 🦈💙

P.S. The deadline to sign up for the meet is 11:59 pm TONIGHT, Sunday July 6!  This is our last home meet!
