The Oakhurst North Torpedoes Swim Team was established in 1999 by the Aurora YMCA with 2 coaches, 12 swimmers, and 2 meets.  One year later we were accepted into the Trident Conference and had 4 coaches, 42 swimmers, and 11 meets. Entering our 27th year, with 6 Trident Championship Trophies, ONT continues to teach life skills to our neighborhood children in and out of the water!
