Overview
Team Overview
The St. Andrew's boys and girls swim team has enjoyed success since its inception in 1993. The team has won more than 20 DISC Championships and competes every year in the State Championships held at the University of Delaware. Saints swimmers have won state championships in their respective individual events and in relays, push each other as supportive teammates, and go on to swim in Division I and Division III programs.
Swimmers train in the Raymond P. Genereaux Aquatic Center, a state-of-the-art, six-lane, 25-meter pool. St. Andrew’s hosts all meets, including our conference championship, at the center. Many swimmers choose to train in the morning before classes and on weekends throughout the year during open pool times.
The program boasts five coaches. Head Coach Matt Harris joined the St. Andrew’s faculty as an English instructor in 2019 after seven years coaching at nearby Washington College where he coached several Scholar All-Americans, NCAA B Cut qualifiers, and conference champions. As a swimmer, Harris swam at Kenyon College for four years. He garnered 15 National Championship titles and 22 All-American awards for individual and relay championships. He was on the national championship team all four years and was captain of the team during his senior year. As a junior, Harris qualified for the 2008 Olympic Trials in the 100 Butterfly. Harris set a school record in the 100 fly at Kenyon College that stood for ten years. He also went on to compete at the World Championship Trials in 2009 after graduating.

Points of Emphasis and Program Goals
The team is coached by five different coaches who apply a comprehensive approach to technique, aerobic work and dry land. At least two days every week are committed to work in the Stuart Fitness Center and a premium is put on drag reduction and injury prevention. The difficult sets always have a purpose, and coaches encourage the team to build each other up when the sets get difficult. Seniors are empowered to establish a positive culture on the team, regardless of experience level or background.
