NCS introduces new logo

by

From the ocean to the mountains, we swim under the beautiful starry blue skies of the North Carolina Swimming LSC. That sums up the inspiration that led to the design of NCS’s new logo launched today at the LSC’s Senior Championships meet. The new logo reflects the LSC’s geographic diversity with the pool uniting our 10,000 swimmers, coaches, officials, and volunteers across the state. The star is a link to the North Carolina flag as well as to USA Swimming. Look for the new NCS logo wherever you swim.
