The GHSA Swim State Championships took place February 4-8, while the GIAA Championships were all on February 1. Tallulah Falls stole the show, as both the girls and boys swam to team state titles, and Madison Dampier (8-time state champ) won five golds (three individual, two relays).
Lucia Roser de Hoyos added a gold, and two boys relay teams took first as well. Kyle Davis and Justin Duke each won a state title for Jefferson to highlight the GHSA meet.
