Austin Angelfish

What a week at the 2025 Junior Olympics—an unforgettable championship made even more special by being held here in our home state of Texas. From our 12U swimmers competing at their very first JOs, to our Senior Reina Zou in her final competition, we’re incredibly proud of the strength, focus, and team spirit our athletes showed throughout the week.

At the same time, we recognize that this week ended in heartbreak for many in our Texas swimming community. Our thoughts are with those who are grieving in the wake of the tragic flooding in the Guadalupe River Valley—including teams and their families from across Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, and right here in Austin. We are holding you in our hearts.🕊️

📣BIG NEWS: We are thrilled to introduce our new Head Coach: Cora Mora Martinez!✨ Cora hails from Colombia, and has over 15 years of experience training and coaching artistic swimmers, including as Assistant Coach of the National Teams of both Chile 🇨🇱 and Aruba 🇦🇼. But let’s hear from Coach Cora herself:

“I am a physical therapist by profession and am currently pursuing an international master’s degree in sports physiotherapy. My approach combines technical knowledge with a holistic view of the athlete, placing a special emphasis on discipline, perseverance, and teamwork”

HUGE Thanks to Coach Anne Kim for stepping up as interim head coach this past year. We so appreciate you taking on the role and guiding the entire team during this time, in addition to coaching the Juniors. And a warm welcome to the Austin Angelfish, Coach Cora! 💛🖤
