Lachlan Gantt
My name is Lachlan Gantt, and I will be a Senior at LTHS this fall. I have been swimming competitively since I was 6 years old. I am a member of the LTHS Varsity Boys swim team, qualifying for Sectionals in both my freshman and sophomore years. I also have been a competitor at the USA Swim Regionals, Age-Group State, Senior State, and National levels.
While I love the competitive side of swimming and striving to see personal bests, I am also a patient and creative teacher and enjoy seeing kids learn new skills too. I work with beginners on becoming comfortable in the water and learn basic strokes, but I also work with advanced swimmers looking to improve their technique and speed.
