The Coaches: Trip Breen is in his 23rd season as the head coach of Wilmington's men's and women's swimming teams.

Dave Doolin is in his fifth season as Transylvania's head coach while Samantha Williams, who spent two years as an assistant coach at WC, is in her first season as Wittenberg's head coach.
