Lauren Wencel
Head Swim Coach - 13 & UP Girls
Hi. My name is Lauren…a
lot of people call me “LAW”. This will be my 22nd
year with the Middleton Gators and I am thrilled to be back! I
will be coaching the 13 & Up’s and well as the 8 &
U’s this season. I started swimming for the Gators in
1988 and continued on for 13 years. During that time, I swam
for Mad-Town Aquatics (now Badger Aquatics) and Middleton High
School, where I was a captain and 4-year varsity letter
winner. I attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where
I majored in History and Psychology. During my time there, I
was a member of the UW Triathlon Team where I competed in 2 of my 4
Ironman competitions. I then attended Edgewood College for my
teaching degree. I currently am a history teacher at La
Follette High School in Madison and am the Middleton High School
girl’s head swim coach. I am taking a break from the
Ironman world this year, but look forward to cheering on my little
brother in his 2nd Ironman as well as the many team parents who
will be competing. In my free time I love to exercise, knit,
read and cook. I believe that swimming is a lifelong sport to
be enjoyed by all as well as a sport which truly makes us better,
more well-rounded people. I am looking forward to another
great Gator season! Let's "do it again in 2010"!
