DES MOINES — The Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union announced that the Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA will remain the host site for the Iowa Girls State Swimming and Diving Meet through the 2022.
“We are pleased that the Girls’ State Swimming and Diving Meet is remaining at the Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA,” said IGHSAU Executive Director Jean Berger. “The hard-working YMCA-YWCA staff and volunteers, along with additional support from Marshalltown High School and the Marshalltown community, have made the State Swimming and Diving Meet an outstanding championship event. We look forward to partnering with Marshalltown for five more years.”
The Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA has been the home of the Girls High School State Swimming and Diving Meet since 2004. In that 14-year span, every swimming and diving state meet record has been set in the Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA pool. Prior to the move to Marshalltown in 2004, the State Swimming and Diving Meet was held at Fort Dodge High School from 1974 to 2003.
“We are pleased to continue our long-standing and successful partnership with the Iowa Girls’ High School Athletic Union in hosting the Girls’ State Swimming and Diving Meet,” stated Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA CEO Carol Hibbs. “Thanks to strong community support and the efforts of many local volunteers, state competitors and their fans will continue to enjoy an exciting championship atmosphere at the Marshalltown YMCA-YWCA.”
