Owasso coach Casey Stelzer continues to encourage his athletes to just keep swimming.
For the first time in months, Owasso’s swim team can practice in its own pool. The COVID-19 pandemic delayed renovations at the Claremore Recreation Center last March but those renovations have been completed. Stick with it. Hard work, hard work, hard work will persevere,” Stelzer said.
The team said the end of last season through start of this one was a challenge. Seniors like Olivia Ross said adversity was a welcome test and a tool Ross uses both in and out of the water. It became less about the season and more about, ‘I wanna be together as a team and I wanna do something that we love,’” Ross said. “Swimming is something we love, so we just wanted to do that. The time clock doesn t lie. The work that we put into this pool shows up on the time clock.
