The Fenton Tigers won their 7th consecutive Flint Metro League Boys Swim Championship and continue their league dual undefeated streak which dates back to 2011. The Tigers have won 9 league titles in the 20 seasons the league offered the sport.
The Metro League added Boys Swim as a league sport in 1971, however league rules require at least half of the member school to sponsor a sport in order for it to be considered an official league sport. There were not enough FML schools to sponsor boys sim/dive between 1976-77 and 2004-05 for it to be considered a league sport.
In addition to their dual undefeated league season at 5-0, the Tigers dominated the league meet winning by 241 points over all opponents. Three Metro League records were broken at the meet:
Brad Jones of Fenton was named the Flint Metro League Boys Swim Coach of the Year for the second straight year.
Owosso received 4 nominations by league opponents as the team that showed the best sportsmanship. Fenton and Brandon each received one nomination.
