Coach's Corner

Congratulations on the first win of the season Hurricanes! We had many super fast swims, lots of new Champs times, and some impressive Breaststroke. All of your hard work in practice has definitely paid off!

Last night was our first night with our new Swim Team Buddies and you all did a fantastic job with that! So many swimmers wished their buddies good luck, cheered them on behind their lanes and told them "good job!" after their races. All the coaches loved seeing the older and younger swimmers interacting with each other and many swimmers making new friends. Let’s continue this awesome team spirit throughout the rest of the season!

I’m really excited to see what we can do at the next meet against Ginter Park! Keep up the good work Hurricanes!

~Coach Ashley

Hurricanes of the Week

Annellice Reid

Annellice is a new to the Hurricanes this year and was a bit nervous about swimming her 50 Butterfly. Those nerves must have helped her swim faster, because she earned herself a Champs qualifying time in the event! Then, she stepped up for her team and swam a leg in the relay shortly after. Annellice is always ready to improve and grow as a swimmer, for herself and to contribute as a member of the team! Great job, Annellice!

JD Chen

JD has been a Hurricane for many seasons, but he isn't getting complacent about it! He came back from being away at the Fork Union Swim Camp to join his team for a meet, spending most of the night cheering on teammates in every age group. JD knows how to have a great time, but also to focus in when it is time for a race. Way to go, JD!

Where are we swimming next?
