Our 2026 Head Coach is Lily Campbell

Hello! Let me just start with how excited I am to be joining the Rivershyre family! I can’t wait to meet all the swimmers, parents and coaches that I have heard so many wonderful things about.

I have been a swimmer since I was seven years old when my parents signed me up for summer swim. I swam for the Coopers Pond Aquaducks for 11 years and also served as a junior coach from ages 12-16, and then head assistant coach for the past two years. I graduated in 2025 from Brookwood High School where I was a four year varsity letterman and captain of the girls state championship winning team my senior year. I swam year round for Spartans Aquatic Club for 8 years. With my club team, I coached the Spartans group working with kids ages 7-11 to developing stroke technique, turns and starts.

I currently attend the University of Kentucky where I am majoring in sports management with a minor in business. I am also a manager for the UK Division I Men’s and Women’s swim teams. GO CATS!!!

In my free time I enjoy traveling, reading and spending time with my friends and family! Fun fact, I just started training to run my first half marathon in Disney world in 2027!

Assistant Coaches 2026: Mackenzie Hamilton 

Hey Sharks! My name is Mackenzie Hamilton, and I'm so excited to be an assistant coach! I am currently a Division II water polo player at Salem University. I am going into my junior year, majoring in physiology and exercise science, pursuing a career as an athletic trainer or physical therapist. I swam competitively for 8 years and part of my first year at Salem University, and I have been playing water polo for 7 years. I have also coached swim and water polo for 3 years, teaching swim lessons for 3 years, and lifeguarding for 5 years. I am so excited to be back coaching Rivershyre again this year, and I can't wait for an amazing season!

A big thank you to all our coaches for their time and dedication to making this summer season a success!
