Being an all-girls team, Coach Caldwell did a great job at educating outside of the pool on female importance and ability, however her actions did not reflect that of her words. Many athletes are injured due to her training regimen, many athletes have left feeling emotionally drained, and many athletes lost their love for the sport under her coaching. Sprinters and Distance swimmers— you have a slim chance of improving under her coaching. Mid-distance/IM swimmers, if you come from a bigger club that tends to swim high volumes, you may improve. If you have a minor injury, do not expect to improve by following her training regimen. You will either swim through it or never swim again. The rest of staff, the dive coach, volunteer coaches, athletic trainers, strength and conditioning coaches, and sport psychs were and continue to be amazing and made it worthwhile. The school has a wonderful community as well! Hopefully the new coach will bring forth a positive environment and prioritize the success of the athletes.
