The Edward Little/Leavitt/Poland/Lewiston co-op, which goes by ELPL, won its fourth straight KVAC championship and was the runner-up at the Class A state meet by 17.5 points. Another celebratory dip in the pool may be harder to come by this season, though, after the graduation of standouts Chase Leonardo and Cameron Lemiuex.

The co-op can still be competitive, with Edward Little senior Jack Martel (scored in the 100-yard butterfly at states) and sophomore Owen Robinson, Lewiston sophomore Sebastain Pambo (scored in the 100 breaststroke) and Leavitt senior Noah Cote providing experience.
