WCST recognizes individual swimmers for exceptional achievement, individual improvement, sportsmanship, and tenure on the team at our end of summer Award Night. 

Alan Smith Award

WCST's Alan Smith Award is conferred on the outstanding swimmer who most exemplifies Alan's positivity in the face of adversity and tireless service to his community. It is awarded annually at our end-of-summer award night. Past awardees have been the inspirational, well-respected, and dedicated swimmers who have helped others and have been regarded as mentors to their teammates.

High Point Trophy

WCST recognizes individual swimmers from each age group and gender who have scored the most points for the team over the course of the season. This includes all dual meets, league championship meet, and County meet, but excludes Time Trials, Orange and Blue, and invitationals such as the Devil Mountain Pentathlon, Woodlands, Crossings Challenge, and City Championship.

Improvement Medals

This allows each swimmer the opportunity to earn a medal for consistent improvement. A bronze, silver, or gold medal is awarded based on how many improved times (often referred to as popped times) the swimmer achieves over the course of the season. Improved times are counted in all individual strokes (not relays) at any meet or invitational. For example, a swimmer may have 3 improvements in butterfly and 7 improvements in freestyle for a total of 10 time improvements over the course of the season. 

Most Improved

This award is given to individual swimmers from each age group and gender who have shown the greatest improvement over the season.
