The cold temperatures outside were an afterthought on Saturday as families and friends gathered to support their high school swimmers in the 2026 Yakima Valley Boys Swimming Championship meet at Lions Pool.

Whitney emphasized the importance of mental health and says that swimming can be a great escape for many young athletes.
