PALO VERDE

Head coach: Brent Gonzalez, ninth season

Outlook: Emery took second in the 200 freestyle and third in the 500 freestyle at the state meet last year.

The Panthers also return a host of swimmers who competed in relays at state, and welcome in Goldsmith, who took fifth in the junior nationals three months ago.

"The girls team is looking forward to closing the gap between them and Bishop Gorman at regionals," Gonzalez said. "The team is young, but is determined to have a successful year."
