2022 14-under All-Star Festival

Over the weekend, 192 of Southern California's up and coming 14 & Under swimmers descended upon Las Vegas for the 2022 All-Star Festival Meet. After two days of great racing, the competition throughout the weekend was so fierce, new meet records were set in 57 of the 86 events!

This year's Festival meet, held in Las Vegas at the Pavilion Center Pool for the first time in the meet's history, also featured some new events, such as mixed relays and 400 IM for the 11-12 & 13-14 age groups. After the competition on Saturday, the athletes stuck around for a pool party celebration that was a blast. Olympians Katie Grimes and Bella Sims stopped by to sign autographs and take pictures with the next generation of SoCal stars. Aquazot atlethes were selected to represent SCS team:
