Barb Fisher

Years Coaching:  Overall years of coaching – 19 years.  Coaching swimming – 8 years.

Years with the Gators:  4 years

Coaching Experience Highlights:
Watching Gators swim personal best times from all their hard work at practice.

Competitive Swimming Highlights:
One of my highlights swimming for Mandan High was holding the school record for one year in the 100 yard butterfly as an 8th grader.

When I first got involved in swimming:
I was 11 years old when I got involved in competitive swimming.  We moved to Mandan and some of my new friends were swimmers so I thought I should try it.  Swimming ended up being one of my favorite sports.

Favorite stroke/event:
My favorite event was definitely the 50 yard butterfly.

Advice for new swimmers thinking about joining the Gators:
Already thinking about joining Gators is the first step, the second, is trying it.  Trying a month of Insta-Gators, or 2 to 3 weeks of Gators, would give you the sense if swimming was for you or not.  Being on Gators can help make new friends, learn new swimming skills, being competitive by choosing to be in swim meets and belonging to a team.  It is fun to be a Gator!
