Who would play Alec Adams in a movie about your life? Channing Tatum

Why? Because they are awesome!

Best advice ever given by a swimming coach: The best advice I’ve ever been given is to just relax and not worry about the other people around me in the pool. Just swim my race and do the best I can, no matter what the people around me are doing.

Best thing about swimming: I’d say the best thing about swimming is the feeling that you get when you look at your time, and you did not think you went that fast, but you actually did. You get a sudden rush of adrenaline because the time that you had was so much faster than you expected it to be. That’s an awesome feeling to have.


Favorite movie: The Dark Knight Rises

Goals for the future: Alec plans to chase the State Championship after a dominant junior season for the Terrebonne Tigers. He hopes to help lead his team to a District Title.

Credentials: Terrebonne High School standout Alec Adams is proof that Tigers can swim. The Tigers’ standout is a monster in the pool, routinely touching the wall faster than anyone else in his respective races. Adams is the driving force on a Terrebonne team that is quickly rising in the ranks and has strong ambitions to win team titles in 2016. Adams said he is receiving interest from several colleges, and he hopes to be a college swimmer.
