Please welcome our 2011 MacAulay Marlins Swim Coaches, Kristen Patterson and Morgan Allen!

Kristen lives in the neighborhood with her husband Jeff and their 2 dogs. She is a middle school science teacher, grew up swimming, and has coached middle and high school swim teams. (Jeff is also a swimmer/coach and our hopes are that his job allows him lots of time to help out at practices and meets.)

Morgan Allen is graduating from college this spring. She grew up swimming for Nomad before swimming for Va Tech. She has coached summer swim teams and led summer swim camps. She starts graduate school this fall to become a teacher.

We would like a few of our high school students to help Kristen and Morgan as junior coaches. If your son or daughter is interested, please send me an e-mail. In the email, include their name, age, swimming background, availability during the swim season, and any other information you think would be helpful. - Kelley & Don Hannam
