CONGRATS CLASS OF 2025 COMMITS!

Congratulations to our AGUA athletes in the graduating class of 2025 who have committed to swim and study at the collegiate level starting this fall. We celebrated our class of 2025 commitments on Saturday, May 3.

Athletes must be granted acceptance into their school of choice and offered a roster spot on the swim team to commit to a college swimming program officially.

This year's class will leave the program after more than a decade of leadership and success in and out of the pool. Together, the AGUA class of 2025 achieved USA Swimming Camp Selections, AGUA Team Records, USA Swimming Scholastic All-American Honors and much more.

LOCKER ROOM REMINDERS

As we continue the 2024-2025 AGUA season, we want to remind our athletes of locker room policies and best practices:

Locker rooms are shared spaces at both BPC & UES. All AGUA swimmers should speak and behave in alignment with our team values of respect, accountability and discipline.
There are absolutely no photos or videos permitted to be taken inside the locker rooms, both on campus and during travel meets.
Swimmers should lock their belongings in a locker during practice.
Only swimmers who are members of Asphalt Green are permitted to use the member locker rooms at Asphalt Green. There are no exceptions.
