In the next month, please make sure your swimmer has not outgrown their old suits and fins. So that you can prepare, here is a list of...

If you know of anyone with a swim background who wants to coach for a few months (but doesn't want the commitment required to be a coach for the Stingrays), this is a GREAT opportunity to get their coaching feet wet!

Please reach out to BHS athletic director Justin...
