This is Coach Josh's first year at Lemont Park District
as the Dolphin's Head Swim Coach. Josh grew up in
Brookfield and attended Lyons Township High School, he has been
swimming since he was 10. He swam and played water polo
throughout high school and at Monmouth College. At
Monmouth Josh set multiple records for swimming, was a 5
time conference champion both for swimming and water polo, as well
as a Division III Water Polo Club National Champion in 2012.
After graduation Josh took on the role of Head Water Polo Coach at

they transitioned from club to NCAA Varsity, he was also
the assistant swim coach for both programs. After a few years
coaching at Monmouth Josh decided to move back closer home and

swimmers from ages 10-18 focusing on technique, efficiency, and
fun! Josh is extremely excited to be a part of the Dolphin

Hello! My name is Meaghan Bower and I am currently a senior at
Lewis University studying Sports and Exercise Science and Athletic
Coaching. I am also part of the Women’s Swim Team and my best
events are butterfly, breaststroke, and the individual medley,
respectively. I am originally from Arizona and have been a swimmer
for 16 years! I have 6 years of coaching/ instructing experience
that include being a head coach for a summer swim league and an
assistant coach for a year-round swim team. My goal is to give back
to the sport that made me who I am today, and by coaching I hope to
do just that! The most rewarding thing to me is seeing improvement
in my swimmers not only in their efforts, but in their character as
well. I am looking forward to being part of the Dolphins Swim Team
as a mentor and a coach for all of the swimmers!

through high school and returned as a coach for the four years of
college. I also swam competitively at Northern Illinois
University until the program was cancelled. I am currently the head
coach of the Lemont High School Girls’ swim team starting my
12th year. I also coached the Lemont High School Boys’
swim team for 10 years. I worked at Lemont High School
as a Physics teacher and love to combine my passion for science
with the techniques of swimming.
