The Georgia High School Association Swimming and Diving State Championships will kick off Tuesday morning with the diving competition at Westminster.

The five-day championships will continue through Saturday, with the swimming events beginning Wednesday at the Georgia Tech Aquatic Center.

Wesleyan’s boys and girls teams swept the Class A-3A championships last season. Boys teams from Walton, Johns Creek and Chattahoochee won state titles in 2024, as did the girls teams from Westminster, Brookwood and Lassiter. The Westminster girls have won seven consecutive state championships.
