Hello Parents and Athletes!Welcome and thank you for choosing to be a part of the Jackson Swim & Dive Team. The T-Wolves compete at the highest level in Washington (4A) and are among the fastest swimmers in the state. Every season brings an exciting competitive energy, and we are proud to have athletes who foster a strong team spirit.The JHS Swim & Dive Team has been an incredible success for many years and those successes are due to our athletes' dedication to the sport and their team, our parents' support of the program and, of course, our amazing coaches Drew Whorley, Mary Lou Barrett & JoLynne Leitzel-Abbe (Dive). We encourage everyone to get involved with our Jackson Aquatics Booster Club which is also a vital aspect of the program's success.Please Note:
