The Lakers had a record-setting weekend, setting many personal records, Meet Records, and pool records at the 2026 OK Lakeshore Conference Swim/Dive Championship Meet. In a battle of D3 State Ranked Teams, the Lakers finished a close second to Holland Christian, 518-498, but in the overall standings, because the Lakers were the Dual Meet Season Champs, 5-0, both SL-HC are OK Lakeshore Co-Champions for the 25-26 Season!
