Mr. James Borowski is the new freshman swimming coach; when asked what he thought about the team, he remarked, "I feel very optimistic toward the freshman swimmers and their future for the next four years. I see a lot of possible potential that has yet to be developed. We're looking forward to finishing up the season with good competition in dual meets, and we are setting our goals high for the conference on February 12."
