Dear Swim families,

We are pleased to share with you that, after a search that produced several excellent candidates, Greenhills has hired Katie Capelli to be our next Boys Varsity Swim & Dive Head Coach. Katie is an alumna of Ann Arbor Pioneer High School where she swam for four years and specialized in the 200 and 500 freestyle. After graduating from Pioneer, Katie continued her swim career at the University of California, San Diego and earned her Bachelor of Arts in political science. Since completing her undergraduate studies, Katie has returned to Ann Arbor where she has quickly become well-ingrained in the youth swimming community. For the past five years, Katie has been the Head Swim Coach at the Chippewa Club in Ypsilanti, and has been the Aquatics Director at Chippewa the past three years. This year, Katie also began coaching for Club Wolverine.

During the interview process, Katie impressed with her organization, communication skills, and energetic attitude, in addition to her expertise in the pool. Katie visited campus on Friday and is excited to get to work and prepare for the upcoming season.

Katie will host an optional meet-and-greet for students on Wednesday, at 3:45p at Greenhills.
