Coach Kelsey was born and raised in Downingtown, Pennsylvania and attended Downingtown West High School. She dove all four years at Downingtown West High School after transitioning from competitive gymnastics. Coach Kelsey then went on to dive for all four years at American University. During summers in college, Coach Kelsey helped coach the diving team at Pennypacker Country Club, and spent one summer in Washington, DC coaching with her college coach. Coach Kelsey now lives in Downingtown with her husband and newborn daughter and is a full-time teacher in addition to coaching the dive teams at both Downingtown West and East High Schools. During her spare time, she runs miles and miles around the borough with her beloved dog, Millie.
Coach Ryann grew up in Downingtown, Pennsylvania, and attended Bishop Shanahan High School, where she competed as a diver. Although she represented Shanahan, she trained with the Downingtown teams - alongside fellow Coach Kelsey. Ryann went on to dive all four years at Providence College.
She now lives in Downingtown with her husband and their three boys. Outside of diving, Ryann works full-time in finance. In the rare moments of free time she has left, you’ll likely find her out running miles and miles - often with Coach Kelsey by her side.
