Swagga’ Like Theirs…The Bed-Stuy YMCA’s Brooklyn Piranhas

Brooklyn youth are doing it again!  Straight out of the YMCA’s Bedford-Stuyvesant branch are the Bedford Piranhas.  They’ve got swagger, a style, and are executing their aquatic skills for all to see.  Ranging from the ages of 7 to 17, these piranhas are taking no refuge, and are out full swing and taking the city by storm.

Say it LOUD! spent some time with the team.  Check out the video to get the 411:

    The Bedford Stuyvesant Piranhas and the YMCA swimming pool they call home are evidence of a goal triumphantly achieved… all the way to State!

    *Great video and testimonials*
