I swam for the piranhas for 9 years, and am excited to coach them for a third season! I also swam for Pflugerville High School, Nitro Swimming, and am currently swimming at Long Island University in New York City where I am also pursuing a degree in exercise science and wellness. My favorite strokes are freestyle and backstroke, and I can't wait to start the season!

My name is Rachel Schulze, and this will be my second year coaching for the Piranhas. I swam for the Piranhas for about 8 years and with the Wells Branch Armada for about 5 years before that. I graduated from Hendrickson High School. While I was there, I participated in cross country, wrestling, swimming, and ultimate frisbee. I managed to be co-captain of both the swim team and ultimate frisbee my senior year in 2020. This summer I will have wrapped up my junior year at Texas Tech University where I study English. I am a part of the swim club there, as well as intramural Ultimate Frisbee. I'm excited to do what I love and coach this summer.
