GSCY Storm College Commitments
Congratulations to our most recent college commitments! We wish you all the best as you embark on the fun and challenging world of collegiate athletics. Continue to make GSCY Storm proud!
If you or your athlete has committed to a collegiate swim program, we would like to feature you in future newsletters! Please send the swimmer's photo and any other information to gscystormconnect@gmail.com.
Graduating Seniors - Tell Us Your Walk Out Song!
We will be celebrating the GSCY Storm Class of 2024 on Sunday, January 28th following the morning session of Miles of Miles. So that everyone goes out in style, we thought it would be great to ask each graduating senior for their "Walk Out Song". (A walk-out song is a song that is played when swimmers walk out to the blocks at major meets. It is typically a song that pumps you up and gets you ready to race.) Seniors - please see the link below to complete.
Senior Spotlight: Class of 2024
We are excited to begin featuring our graduating seniors through individual profiles on our website, newsletter, and social media channels! If you are a graduating senior and have not yet completed your Senior Spotlight questionnaire, please click here to submit your information.
Congratulations and keep shining bright, Class of 2024!
Graduating Seniors: Please Complete the Senior Spotlight Questionnaire!
Planning is underway for one very important event: graduating senior recognition at our end-of-season banquet. We couldn't be prouder of our seniors who consistently put in so much time and hard work in the pool on top of a demanding school schedule!
In celebration of your efforts, we would like to feature your accomplishments on our website and social media channels. To help us in putting together senior profiles that would provide a proper send-off, please complete the Graduating Senior Questionnaire by February 15, 2024. To access the questionnaire, please click here or click on the form below.
If you have any questions, please contact Myra Supetran at gscystormconnect@gmail.com.
