Michaela started swimming at the age of 5 with Marlins and the KOP swim club now the township pool, home of the Stingrays. From the ages of 12-14 she swam for NAAC and Markley Farms before coming back for her high school years, where she swam as a Marlin, Stingray and for the Upper Merion High School team. Michaela is a graduate from Bloomsburg University and is so excited to come back to enjoy her love of swimming as a coach for the Marlins. Michaela has been coaching the Marlins since 2017. She looks forward to teaching a new era of swimmers in our gorgeous new facility and sharing her love of swimming with them.
Paige started as a Minnow at the age of 5 and spent 13 years as a dedicated Marlin. She continued swimming through high school, where she served as captain her senior year. Paige’s strokes were backstroke and butterfly. Her earliest memory of swimming is testing how long she could hold her breath on the side of the middle school pool at a minnows practice. When she’s not on the pool deck, Paige is a professional gardener and spends her weekends as a proud employee of Muffins, owned and operated by Coach Paul. Paige is excited to finally be a Marlin again!
