Ally Robertson is back. As a freshman a year ago, she was Swimmer of the Year with three gold medalsand this season she requires an even more robust back, toting around four additional gold medals alongwith Edmond North teammate Rylee Linhardt. “We are blessed to have two girls on the team with thekind of talent that Ally and Rylee have," head coach Steve Riggs lauded. "I usually do not swim themagainst each other because having them in different events means more chances at first places forNorth. However, they both have the talent to win multiple events, and we will see over the years howthat develops."

Memorial's Naresh Naik will take along anotherschool record with him to Missouri State this fallto add to his previous three. “His work ethic is sec-ond to none and along with a great attitude, hehas established himself not only as one of the bestswimmers ever in Oklahoma, but he has attainednational level status and possible All-Americanrecognition. To break a school record at Memorialis very hard because of all the great swimmers andtradition built over almost 40 years. But to breakfour of them like Naresh did is a testament to histalent and dedication."
