Lloyd Swims Their Way to State

The 2014-1015 Juggernaut Swim Team is making a historic run to State this year. This is only the third time in Lloyd Memorial High School history that an athletics’ team has made it to state. The last team to do this was the 1974 Football team. And before them the 1965 football team. Now it’s the Swim team’s time to rise to the occasion and bring home that state trophy.

Olympic swimmer Brendhan Haynes, was honored enough to be entered into the Kentucky Swimmers Association Hall of Fame Alliance of Passionate Swimmers, otherwise known as the KSAHFAPS. He is one of the major contributors towards this year’s swimming success, with being Lloyd`s new head swim coach this season. Haynes was most known for his performance in the 1996 summer Olympics in Great Britain for representing the United States and bringing home the silver medal in doggy-paddle race.

The swim team consists of 5 solid teammates. The most recognized being Mahfoudh Mohammed. Mahfoudh, A.K.A the man who walks on water, says “I’m ready to get out there on the water and swim like a fish in the sea”. Mahfoudh is in the top 5 swimmers on the KSA list (Kentucky Swimming Association), and has carried the team to this point in the season. Bring home that state title Juggs!
