Coaches
Hey Barracudas! I’m Nicole Toohill and I am so excited to be the Head Coach and 13-14/15-18s Coach for the 2026 season!!! I have been a part of this team for 15 years and this will be my fourth year as a Coach. I will be a junior at Gonzaga University this fall, double-majoring in criminology and psychology. Being a part of this team is the highlight of my summer every year! I’m really looking forward to the responsibility of Head Coach and getting to know every swimmer, focusing on creating a super fun environment, and seeing growth and improvement in skills and sportsmanship.
This season is going to be so much fun and I can’t wait to get started! GOOOO BARRACUDAS!!!
Feel free to reach out to me anytime through email or text with any questions or concerns!
I’m excited to be back for my 15th year on the team! Swimming has been a huge part of my life, and I’ve loved growing up with this team and competing every summer. Outside of the pool, I’m a student at CU Boulder studying finance and accounting. I enjoy staying active, running, and skiing when I’m not swimming. Looking forward to another great season and making more memories with the team!

I’m really excited to meet all my amazing swimmers this summer and help us grow as a team and family! Go Barracudas!
