The girls’ team competed in all 12 events, including three relay teams with Isabella Perez, Sands, Alexa Anthony, and Allyson Lake in the 100-yard freestyle relay. Lake, Hope Suther, Sophia El Chantiry, and Carly Chin won the 200-yard medley relay, while El Chantiry, Hope Suther, Alexa Anthony, and Carly Chin took first in the 200-yard medley relay.
