Another amazing swim & dive season is in the books for Battlefield High School. The girls team finished as the State Runner-Up and fell to their rivals at Yorktown. Junior Alyssa Sagle broke the state record in the 100 yard backstroke in a time of 52.19.

Battlefield also extended the streak to 5 years in a row winning the girls 50 yard freestyle at the state championship.  The boys team finished 13th improving 3 spots from 2024. Both squads had incredible swims and time drops and leave the meet with a lot to be proud of.
