Coaches
Terry Depew Head Coach
Coach Terry or Coach T is thrilled to be on the deck for her fifth season as head coach of the Aqua Knights. A lifelong learner of the sport, she has coached high school, age group, and summer league before stepping away from the deck and becoming a spectator to watch her two sons compete in college swimming. She returned to the deck to help rebuild the Aqua Knights swim program.
She loves to help swimmers grow into the sport whether they're cross-training, competing, learning new strokes and distances. She enjoys getting to know all her swimmers and helping them improve in and out of the pool. In Coach Terry's free time, you can spot her kayaking or stand up paddle boarding around the lake. She has been a bridal seamstress for over 30 yrs. and is an avid gardener.
Heather Roberts Asst. Coach
Coach Heather lives in Glasford with her husband, Aaron, and two kids, Vance and Ronee. She grew up in Lake Camelot swimming for the Aqua Knights! Then in 1999-2000 came back as head coach for a few seasons. Now is back for her 5th year with Coach Terry! When it’s not swim season, she teaches 4th grade at Illini Bluffs. Coach Heather is so excited to see all the returning swimmers and anxious to meet new swimmers!!
Alana Robertson Assistant Coach
