PRESENTED BY COACH RIDLER

I am entering my 7th season as head coach. Mike Lehto in his 4th year as an assistant and Phil Symons is in his 3rd year. Mary Ubert and Mark DeSwardt are new to our assistant coaching roles this year.

The Wildcats look to compete for the State Championship after a 3rd-place finish at last year's State Meet, with the addition of young talent to compliment the solid group that is already in place.

Returning State Swimmers Nathan Christian ( 50 Free, 200 Medley Relay, 200 Free Relay, 400 Free Relay), Peter Simcox (100 Fly, 200 Medley Relay, 200 Free Relay, 400 Free Relay), Abdo Dergham (400 Free Relay), and Rayon Artis (200 Free Relay, 400 Free Relay) are looking forward to having additional company with them down in Canton at the end of February.

The Wildcats look like a different squad this year by adding 11 new athletes to the mix; bringing the total of 25 compared to 18 athletes last season. They look to perform well in dual meets against some of the toughest competition that our state has to offer. The team is full of young, hard working men that do not back away from challenges. They surely will be a force to be reckoned with this season.
