CULLMAN, Ala. — The Cullman Swim and Dive Team held its end of the season banquet at Stone Bridge Farms, graciously sponsored by Traditions Bank, last. At the banquet, each swimmer and diver was recognized with a trophy for how many years they had either swum or dove. Senior swimmers were also recognized. Also, state meet medals, century club trophies (100 points or greater for the season), high point awards, and record breaker plaques were awarded.
The Dive Team wrapped up a thrilling season in July as both the ARPA District and State champion! The Swim Team celebrated an amazing season as well, coming in 2nd place to Madison at District, and 3rd to Madison and Auburn at State.
