Each month, we will feature one of our swimmers in the Swimmer Spotlight.  Here, swimmers will have a chance to tell us about themselves and why they swim on the SFRP Rossi Swim Team.

Swimmers, if you haven't already filled out the form for the Swimmer Spotlight, please pick-up a form at the pool or download one here.
