Twenty-six members of the Mystic Valley swim team were recently named Commonwealth Athletic Conference all-stars. With grace and determination, these student-athletes have showcased exceptional talent and unwavering commitment to the sport of swimming. Their coach, Andrew DiGiacomo, was very happy for his swimmers saying, “It is always a great day to see so many Mystic swimmers recognized as all stars for the swim season. This was an exceptional group this year as both Boys and Girls programs were top 10 at both sectionals and states, with the girls rising to the highest finish in their history with a sixth-place finish at the state championship meet. It was a great year, and we are even more excited for the next couple of years as many of our all-stars were underclassmen!”
