Girls Swimming

Girls' Swimming contact:
Matt Finnigan, Head coach

This year's squad will be anchored by a bevy of talented seniors including Kate McMinimee, Melissa Nichols, and Garam Kim. The "Scarlet Heroes of Yore" will be vying to recapture the State title, hoping to make it their sixth championship in seven years.

The Lady Bulldogs will look to get big contributions from a wealth of sources, including twin sisters Carolyn and Kenzie Carter ('10), and a host of very talented freshmnen which could prove to be the difference in what should be a very tight race for the 3A title.
