Proudly taking a moment to display their team trophies, the Wellsboro Summer Swim League highlighted their season on Sunday, Aug. 1, at Packer Park, with their annual awards ceremony.

This year was a stellar season as many new personal records and league records were shattered, as the Wellsboro team concluded the season 5-0-1 and also garnered their first Bald Eagle Summer League Championship Title in over seven years.

Jersey Shore is always a powerful source in the water for Wellsboro, especially at championships.

This season - Wellsboro had other intentions on leaving Jersey Shore behind — to EAT THEIR BUBBLES after coming up short by 15 points last season for the title.

With over 375 swimmers, Wellsboro concluded the championships held Saturday, July 31, in Loyalsock with 1,460.5 points, while Jersey Shore had to settle for second place at 1,220 points. Loyalsock finished third (896), while Tri-Town (770.5), Troy (632), Williamsport (516) and Mill Hall (263) rapped up the points.
