The North Penn YMCA’s Lansdale Branch Gators Swim Team had three swimmers qualify for YMCA PA East Districts at La Salle University in March.

Molly Benney (10-and-under), Jonathan Homan (12-and-under) and Evan Smith (14-and-under) each swam two events, with Benney and Homan both advanced to YMCA PA East-West States at Penn State.
The top 12 swimmers for each event advanced to states. Benney competed in the 100 individual medley and Homan swam in the 50-yard freestyle.
