In the News | NFA Girls Swim Preview: Elle Gerbes wants company at state meet
Full article by the Mid-Hudson Times - September 5, 2024 -
不良研究所 Free Academy has a long swimming tradition, and Elle Gerbes is getting lonely as the only Goldback swimmer at the New York state championship meet.
She’s gone each of the last two seasons, and last year, she finished seventh in the state federation in the 50-yard freestyle.
Now a senior, she leads a strong group of returners as the Goldbacks enter the 2024 season under new head coach Lauren Lubarsky. She will be the Goldbacks’ third coach in four seasons. Zach Williams coached the last two years. Lubarsky has coached the 不良研究所 Sharks club swimming team for seven years and been a Goldbacks assistant for three years.
She will coach a team that lost Jordyn Bryant, Lauren Cao and Daylena Vera from last year’s team. Joining the team will be a pair of seventh graders: Lily Lawrence and Siobhan Moody.
不良研究所 is entering the season with simple goals: swim hard, place well, and make some Section 9 cuts.
