THE SEAHAWKS

The Seahawks will be led this season by Coach Chelsea

Chelsea began coaching on her summer swim team, the Brunswick River Rapids, where she coached all age groups for nine consecutive seasons. In 2023, she took a role as a program lead with the Capitol Sea Devils, leading age groups with swimmers from 8 to 18 years old. In 2024, she led the middle school program at Sidwell Friends, before settling into a Varsity head coach position at Georgetown Day School. As a previous competitive swimmer Chelsea understands the highs and lows of swimming, and relishes in the opportunity to give swimmers kind words, detailed feedback, and so many cheers. She is excited to get back into summer swim! Chelsea is available for private lessons at [email protected]

Anjali Sayal and Andrew Bian, both longtime Seahawks, will be the Assistant Head Coaches and Keira Winn will lead the Seahawks Pre-Team.

Riaan Ahuja

Hi Seahawks! My name is Riaan and I am a freshman at The Potomac School in McLean. I have been swimming in Montgomery Square since I was 5 years old. Summer swim as a Seahawk was where I found my love for swimming. After that first summer, I started swimming for a year-round club, NCAP, and haven't looked back. I've swum and won at county, state, and national level meets. I hope I can inspire the next generation of swimmers while also making practice as fun as possible! I am also available for private lessons this summer. If you or anyone you know is interested in learning how to swim or, if they're a little more of a seasoned swimmer, how to improve their stroke techniques or starts and turns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at 301-456-6797 or at [email protected]. Let's swim hard and have fun this summer!

Brandon Min

Hi! My name is Brandon, and I am looking forward to coaching this summer. For the past 3 years, I have been a coach for pre-team, helping teach kids how to swim. I have been at Montgomery Square for about seven or eight years, about as long as I can remember, and I've been on the swim team ever since second grade. I remember my first ever 25m swim. It was freestyle, and I barely managed to make it across the pool. Now I enjoy swimming longer distances. Outside of swimming, some of my hobbies include playing video games, biking, and running. This year, I started XC running and track, and it has been going really well. I was able to break 5 minutes in the mile, and I'm excited to share that I made varsity for XC. Again, I am honored for this opportunity as a swim coach, and I'm excited to help out and learn more about coaching!

Will Hart
