Coach:  Scott Morrison (fifth year)

Returning letter winners: Senior — Kenny Treadwell (freestyle), Evan Favreau (breaststroke), Ben Bellevue; Junior — Tony Wysocki (free); Sophomores — Andrew Paione (backstroke), Nelson Meteyer (free, back).

Key losses — Tim Brodsky, Adam Lozis.

Promising newcomers: Senior — Alex Smith; Sophomore — Tyler Sheehan.

Outlook: The Red Eddies are in rebuilding mode with 15 swimmers on the roster, a slight decrease from last year. Losing two-time Sun Journal swimmer of the year Brodsky will hurt, but Treadwell could help fill the void as one of the top freestyle sprinters in the KVAC. Paione qualified for states last year. Morrison will be looking for improvement from his younger competitors as much as wins.

Coach’s comment: “We’ll win a few meets this year, but as far as state competition goes, we’re a bit inexperienced.” — Coach Scott Morrison
