Coach's Corner
What a great way to end the season but with a win over a team that beat us by only 12 points in our second meet! This last meet was filled with many mixed emotions as we said goodbye to yet another season of summer swim and to two more seniors, Ashley Eastep and Sam Bixler. Thank you both so much for all of our hard work and commitment to the team.
On the other hand, we not only won but we also got to welcome six new Hurricanes to the team last night! It was so exciting to watch six young swimmers graduate from pre-team to the real deal swim team. They all swam a fantastic first race and as coaches we couldn’t be more excited to welcome to them to the team full-time next season.
Thank you to everyone, swimmers, parents, siblings, and volunteers, for making this one of the best seasons yet! I hope that everyone had as much fun as I did this summer and that you all come back again next season for an even greater time. Don’t forget to sign-up for the banquet next Thursday, July 26th, the day after champs, for awards, food, and so much fun!
Go Hurricanes!

Hurricanes of the Week
Sam Bixler
Sam graduated this spring from Godwin High School and will attend James Madison University in the fall, planning to study Business and Marketing. Sam has been a member of the Hermitage Hurricanes since he was five years old and always enjoys swimming freestyle. Outside of the pool, Sam is an avid lacrosse player. Last night, we enjoyed watching Sam swim his final meet as a Hermitage Hurricane (and he even scored as a triple winner!). Thank you for many years of swimming, Sam and good luck at JMU next year!
Ashley Eastep
Ashley (aka Coach Ashley) graduated from Collegiate this year and will be attending William and Mary this fall, where she plans to study Biology. Ashley has been a Hermitage Hurricane for the past eleven summers, but this summer became an invaluable member of our coaching team! Ashley has been very active in swimming, not just as a member of the Hermitage team, but as a member of the Collegiate swim team and at NOVA. It was great watching Ashley swim in her final meet as a Hurricane swimmer. Best of luck next year at W&M and thank you, Ashley!
Drew Frank
Drew Frank graduated from Freeman High School and will attend Southern Methodist University this fall, as he plans to study Business. Drew has been swimming for Hermitage since he was five years old. Outside of the pool, Drew enjoys playing baseball and golf. We enjoyed celebrating Drew as he swam in his final meet a few weeks ago. We wish Drew the best of luck and thank you for your dedication as a Hurricane swimmer!
