Coach Steve was an original member of the Glenwood Springs Barracuda Swim Team in 1970. After years of age group, Jr. /Sr., and college swimming, Steve continues to swim regularly today. He was the head coach for the Barracudas during college, when our team was a summer-only club.

Along with his current Team Sopris duties, he is also the Glenwood Springs High School swim coach. With years of competitive swimming, distance/adventure running, triathlons, along with being a devoted Cross training exerciser, coach Steve brings a passion for training to the team.
