Congrats to Blaine Cooper-Surma and Jordon Blackwell for winning the Wabash Swimming Ranger Day! The day was full of competition, camaraderie, and encouragement. Mind, body and spirit were all tested... and everyone experienced victories along the way. Best of all the team learned to see adversity as a challenge, not as a threat… and that risk-taking was an essential part of victory.

Well Done Boys!
