OWASSO, Okla. — A new 18,000 square-foot "state of the art" swim academy is coming to Owasso.

Trident Aquatics announced Monday that it is breaking ground on the new facility, which will be home to the Waves Swim Academy for teaching youth through adults to swim, and to Trident Aquatics, a local USA Swimming-sanctioned competitive team.

The facility will be located on three acres just east of the St. John Medical Campus, near US-169 and the 96th Street exit.

The facility will house two pools: a world class, eight lane competition pool and a shallower teaching pool.

Trident has trained swimmers from the Tulsa area at the Claremore Recreation Center since 2014, and has placed swimmers at the state, regional national levels, including the 2016 Olympic trials.
