Cougar Swimmers Compete at Fort Gibson

FORT GIBSON — Varsity and junior high swimmers from Ada  made their annual trip to Fort Gibson Friday night for a meet with Miami and host Fort Gibson. 

For the first time in the seven-year history of the Ada-Byng swimming co-op program, the full Ada girls team earned a trip to the 2010 OSSAA State Swimming Championships.

“We are proud of the accomplishments of our OSSAA swimmers so far this year”, said head coach Dr. Anita Walker.
“There is no doubt that state qualifiers are exciting to have, but a better overall measure of our success is the huge number of personal time improvements that have been made by all of our participating students in their first eight meets of the season. There are no swim teams and there are no relays without the individuals themselves, and we are equally proud of each and every one of our swimmers.”
