This is Marlee's 5th year with FHSSDT, but her first time being head coach. She has served as an assistant coach the past two seasons and has loved watching the team achieve greatness!
Marlee began swimming at the age of 7, where she swam for the Northside YMCA and PACK (Pilot Aquatic Club of Knoxville). She then continued her career at Central High School, where she broke multiple school records and holds them to this day. Coach Marlee received a scholarship to swim at King College before tearing her rotator cuff prior to her first college season, thus prematurely ending her career. Since then, she has coached for Jefferson County Swim Club, Emerald Youth Foundation, and now Farragut.
Coach Marlee was born and raised in Knoxville and lives with her husband, Matt, and two bluetick hounds, Neyland and Gracie. They absolutely love traveling & sports, especially baseball, so you'll catch them at Vols Baseball or Yankees games. In her free time, Coach Marlee loves to read (librarian, duh), work out, and watch Top Gun.
