LOCAL SWIMMING: Athens Gators claim ARPA District 1 title
Published 12:58 pm Tuesday, July 22, 2025
The Athens Gators swim team won the Alabama Recreation & Parks Association (ARPA) District I championship meet earlier this month to remain unbeaten on the season.
Top four swimmers in their respective events — or swimmers with a qualifying time — as well as the top two relay teams advance to the state championship meet in Albertville.
The Gators will be represented by 87 swimmers — the most the team has ever qualified for the state meet.
