Capping off a successful 2010 swim season, the Ashburn Farm Barracudas Swim Team brought home a double helping of trophies from this week’s White Divisional swim meet by claiming by bringing home two age bracket trophies for the most points earned in the division during the regular season.

On top of these season spanning awards, the Barracudas also won six individual events at the meet itself.  Bringing home two individual first place ribbons was Brooke Matthias for the 50M Free and the 50M Back.  In addition, Grace Boyles won her (Girls 9-10) 100M IM, Lindsey Jachimowski won in the 50 M Free, Claire Masi won her (8&U) 100M IM, and Madeleine Masi took the 25 M Fly.

Meet Our 2010 Coaching Staff

Our 2010 coaching staff is probably the most experienced one the Barracudas have ever had with so many of our coaches returning from previous seasons.

Head Coach:  Stephen Clendenin will be our head coach for his 3rd season.  Previously, he was Assistant Coach.  He has been with the Barracudas for 12 seasons and currently is a star swimmer with the University of Mary Washington.  He still holds two Barracuda team records.

Assistant Head Coach:  Emily McDaniel moves up to assistant head coach this season after serving 3 seasons as a junior coach.  This is Emily’s 12th season with the Barracudas and she still holds team records with both the Barracudas and Stonebridge High School.  Emily is also eligible to swim for the Barracudas this year for the last time and currently holds three Barracuda team records.  She is a student at the University of Virginia.

Junior Coaches:

  • Alex Bulk – his 3rd season as a junior coach and is eligible to swim one more season despite having graduated.  He is now a student at Virginia Tech.
  • CJ Kowalewski – his 3rd season as a junior coach.  CJ also swims for Stonebridge High School.  He currently has two Barracuda team records as part of relay teams.
  • Gina Lair – her 2nd season as a junior coach.  Gina also swims for Stonebridge High School

Swim Suits

The team is due to get new suits this year (summer suits are usually only available for two summers).  We will have a suit sizing/purchase date on Saturday, May 22 at the Ashburn Farm Homeowners Association building.  The address is 21400 Windmill Drive and we will be on the lower level from 9AM – Noon.  You can come out and try on your suit for proper fitting and purchase it that day.  If you cannot make this date, you can go directly to Cassel’s Sports and Awards anytime after this date to make your purchase there.  The address for Cassel’s is 14000 Park Center Road, Herndon, VA 20171.
