Rockets have added a couple of coaches for the upcoming season (which starts in September).

Here's a link to a story about the new coaches. Welcome to UT ...

Bumping this for no particular reason other than I felt like doing it (I'll also be bumping the volleyball thread we have for the upcoming season). I think we've got threads now for all the fall non-revenue sports except for the tennis squads. The only reason I haven't started those this morning is that the 2016-17 schedules haven't been posted (unless I need new glasses). Looks like the tennis schedules from 2015-16 are still up for some reason.

Anyway, back to swimming and diving: season begins at the end of September at the Tom Stubbs Relays at Bowling Green.

Five newcomers for the UT swim team:

From NY, Canada, England, Australia, and Tiffin.

An article's been released about the schedule (which had already been released - see the first post in this thread. Either they just got around to interviewing the coach or the schedule's been updated). Article has a comment or two from Coach Persson. Here's a link to the story with the coach's comments, followed by another link to the schedule if you're interested.

A New Coach with a Fresh Philosophy Leads 2016-17 Toledo Women’s Swimming & Diving Program

Nice article about the new coach and projections about the team. Didn't realize that he was assistant to former Rocket's coach Jorgenson at Tennessee. He tenure at UT included a lot of success, so hopefully the new coach picked up a lot good things from him.
