Meet Our Coaches
Hi, New Mark Families! For those of you who don't know me, my name is Jack Roberts. I am graduating from the University of Arkansas in May 2022 with majors in Finance and Accounting and will be attending KU Law School in the fall. I swam for New Mark from 2005 until 2018, when I graduated high school. I always looked forward to my summers and that's why I was so excited when I got the chance to give back and to be able to coach. I was an assistant coach for the 2018 and 2019 seasons, head coach for the 2020 season and I am grateful to be back as head coach for the 2022 Season. I look forward to seeing all of the familiar faces and meeting all the new ones, Go Stingrays!
Hey everyone! I'm Nick Verwers and this will be my third season coaching for the Stingrays! I swam for the team every summer since I was 7 and have loved the last couple years coaching. I also swam club for multiple years and swam for the Staley swim team all four years of high school. I'm currently attending Northwest Missouri State University and am majoring Mathematics with an Emphasis in Data Science and will be graduating in the spring of next year. Summer swim was one my favorite parts of growing up and my goal is to make sure that each swimmer on our team gets to enjoy the experience as much as I did. Here's to a fun season, it's gonna be great!
