2007-08 Record:
Boys: 4-3, Division: 4-1
Girls: 5-2, Division: 5-0

The B-CC swimming and diving team earned a place in the county's elite Division I with a strong second-place finish in the MCPS Division II championships.

The B-CC All-Sports Boosters purchase a silver engraved star for the student-athlete that the coach has designated as the example of sportsmanship on his/her team. It is given not only for hard work and personal improvement, but also for a willingness to understand, to learn, to enter into a partnership with the coaches and teammates in an effort to recognize one’s full potential. At the same time, this person has taken an individual sport to its highest team level by consistently placing personal goals subordinate to the team’s needs and goals. The 2007-08 winners for swimming were Hannah Center and Robert Witkop.
