International Swimming League 2020: Aqua Centurions
- 2019 finish: 7th
- 2019 MVP: Breno Correia (62.5 MVP points)
The Aqua Centurions struggled for depth in season one, winning 7 total races but finishing just behind the DC Trident in final season standings.
Additions
- Madeline Groves
- Sara Franceschi
- Etiene Medeiros
- Szebaztian Szabo (IRO)
- Marcelo Chierighini (NYB)
- Pedro Spajari (NYB)
- Matteo Ciampi
- Leonardo de Deus
- Luiz Altamir Melo
- Gabriel Santos
The Aqua Centurions are still mostly based on Italian talents, but they did a nice job recruiting out of South America, too. Etiene Medeiros is a solid Brazilian sprinter who should help the relays and potentially the skin races. Marcelo Chierighini and Pedro Spajari both make the jump from the NY Breakers to join the sprint group here.
Szebaztian Szabo is by far the biggest pickup. He scored at least 24.5 points in all three of his showings last year for Iron.
Losses
- Margherita Panziera
- Freya Anderson
- Franziska Hentke
- Sarah Kohler

- Alba Vazquez

- Apostolos Christou
- Vladislav Grinev
