Making History

As our team continues to grow and improve, we celebrate an incredible milestone—Vasily is the first Wilberforce School swimmer to qualify for the New Jersey Meet of Champions! This is an amazing achievement, as only a select few swimmers earn this recognition each year.

A huge congratulations to all of our swimmers for their hard work and outstanding performances. Let’s keep up the momentum and build on this success!
