Good Afternoon Sharks!

We hope everyone had a safe and fun Fourth of July! We could not be more proud of our team after an incredible performance at the 11th Annual Stars & Stripes Invitational. For the 6th year in a row, the Dominion Valley Sharks brought home the trophy!

This meet is always one of the highlights of the summer, and it was amazing to see our swimmers represent the Sharks with so much enthusiasm, sportsmanship, and team spirit. Congratulations to everyone who competed!!
