The Bulldog Aquatic Club was represented by five members at the Texas Sectionals Championships hosted by Texas A&M in College Station in early March.

This regional competition features some of the fastest athletes from Louisiana, Oklahoma, all of Texas, and California.  There were no age groups or age limit for this meet so there were some collegians and even post grad collegians competition.

“I am so proud of these athletes,” said BAC head coach Rocky Smith. “This is meet is an extremely high-level meet with great competition. It is easy to get overwhelmed at a competition of this nature. They did not. They showed guts and fortitude in their races. This is great momentum for these athletes heading into summer competition.”

Adam Wiedemeier recorded two top 10 finishes to highlight the meet, finishing sixth in the 100m freestyle and fourth in the 200m freestyle.
