Hello All,

Last night it was announced that Leighton Raich and Wesley Grogan were the recipients of the 2023 Coaches Award as votes on by the coaches.

Leighton sent the following response from her lakeside vacation:

I'm really surprised to receive the coaches award because there are so many good divers on this team. Thank you for giving me the coaches award. I want to say thank you to the coaches for helping me with all my dives and making themselves available to do private lessons. All of you helped me a lot and always made me laugh. For me, I think the people that made this season most enjoyable was all my friends. It would not be the same without them. Thank you all for the fun memories I can't wait to come back next season!

Wesley sent the following response from his beachside vacation:

I had a really fun first season. I learned a lot and enjoyed being part of the team. I appreciated the friendships my team mates and the hang outs at McDonalds. I am looking forward to next year!

Congratulations, to both Leighton and Wesley. You will both be receiving a beach towel with the words “2023 Coaches Award and your name!”
