UNH SEASON PREVIEW: Women's Swimming & Diving Raring to Start the 2015-16 Season

DURHAM, N.H. -- Coming off a season that culminated with a high conference finish and several name changes on the Swasey Pool record board, the University of New Hampshire women's swimming & diving team has elevated expectations for the 2015-16 season. Head coach Josh Willman, beginning his 23rd season at UNH, is set to guide an enthusiastic and motivated squad that is capable of accomplishing great things.

After coming within 14 points of claiming an America East crown, the Wildcats look to compete for another banner and send representatives to the NCAA Championships. Aside Willman, a 13-time America East and four-time ECAC Coach of the Year, he will be assisted by associate head coach Jarrod Zwirko for the eighth consecutive season. Also returning is second-year volunteer assistant coach Melissa Hubley. Diving coach Lindsay Close is the most recent addition to the deck and will look to make the diving contingent a force to be reckoned with.
