As we wrap up our Meet the Coaches series, we couldn’t end without recognizing someone who would probably rather stay behind the scenes…
If you know Brandy, you know she’d never fill out a spotlight questionnaire or ask for recognition. In fact, she’d probably rather we didn’t post this at all. But sometimes the people who shy away from the spotlight deserve it the most.
Brandy is the heart behind so much of what makes the Lake Cumberland Wave Riders and Lake Cumberland Swim Club what they are today. Her passion for swimming and her unwavering dedication to our athletes have helped grow our programs and create opportunities for swimmers throughout Somerset and Pulaski County.
If you’ve ever been to a meet, you’ve seen her in action. She’s the one capping swimmers, organizing the organized chaos of a home meet, answering questions, solving problems before anyone else knows they exist, and somehow still finding time to cheer for every single swimmer who steps onto the blocks.
Whether it’s a first-time swimmer finishing their very first race or an experienced athlete chasing a personal best, Brandy celebrates every success and encourages every challenge with the same enthusiasm.
The impact she has on these kids goes far beyond swimming. She has helped create a program where athletes feel supported, families feel welcomed, and every swimmer knows they have someone in their corner.
Brandy, thank you for the countless hours, the early mornings, the late nights, the behind-the-scenes work that often goes unnoticed, and the love you pour into this team every single day. The Wave Riders, Lake Cumberland Swim Club, and the entire swimming community in Somerset and Pulaski County are stronger because of you.
We appreciate you more than words can say.
🌊 Small Town. Big Pride. Ride the Wave.
