Shorecrest and Shorewood swimming teams competed at the WIAA 3A District championship Friday and Saturday, November 3-4, 2023 at the Snohomish Aquatic Center in Snohomish WA.

Since the Shoreline Pool was demolished, both teams have been renting local private pools. This season both were able to schedule the outdoor pool at the Innis Arden Clubhouse in Shoreline.

Fortunately for them, they finished their regular season before the weather broke.

At the District finals, Shorecrest came in first and Shorewood second:
