The Dawgs Swim Team began over 25 years ago as a local YMCA Masters team. Throughout the years they have grown in size, experienced changes in their practice venues, witnessed acquisitions of new pools and have combined with other masters teams.

They are currently one of the few teams that swim in a 50-meter pool year round and are consistently one of the top 10 teams at the seasonal state meets.
