Originally from Cottage
Grove, Coach Alison is thrilled to be living in Mount Horeb and
part of the Gators! She and her family, husband Eric and two

Alison is the 6-12 grade art teacher at New Glarus Middle and High

The Knightly News. Alison has a BA from UWGB in Studio Art, a PK-12
Art Teaching Certificate, and a Masters in Educational
Administration from Edgewood College.
Alison began swimming
as a high school freshman at MG in 1993, when a friend suggested
joining with her. It was a rough start having never worn a swim
cap, not knowing how to dive, and still plugging her nose. But, by
the end of four years of high school swim team, club and summer
swimming, she earned a scholarship for swimming to Division I
University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. While in GB, she was on two
Conference Championship Winning Teams, numerous champion swims, and
elected captain as a junior and senior. Alison focused mostly on
sprint freestyle and backstroke while in GB.
Alison began coaching
as an assistant coach at Monona Swim and Dive club in 1998 and
stayed until 2000. In 2001, she took over the club as head coach
and remained until moving to
New Glarus in 2004. She also assisted with M*G*M
(Monona Grove Madison) Aquatic Club in 2002-2004. While teaching,
she assisted the Oregon High School women's team in 2008, 2009 and
the Oregon High School men's team in 2009,
2010.

Hi, I’m Conner Arneson, and
I’m one of the 8 and Under coaches! This will be my 9th
year swimming with the MoHo Gators and my first year as a
coach. At this time I also swim for Madison Aquatics Club and
will be swimming for my Junior year at VAMH Boys Swim Team.
I’ve mentored for around 3-4 years and couldn’t
wait to start coaching! Some things I like to do in my free
time is play with my animals, 1 dog and 2 cats, and spend time with
friends and family. I’m very exited to spend this
summer getting to know all of the 8 and Under munchkins and having
a great season! Gooo Gators!

Hi! My name is Ingrid Malin and I am one
of the 11-12 year old coaches. I’ll be a sophomore this year

I’m very excited to be a part of that team all through high

is butterfly. I can’t wait for another great summer season!!
Go Gators!!
