Virtual Meeting with Torey Ortmayer
​Sept. 8, 2021
Yorktown High School Girls Swim and Dive State Champion Coach

Torey Ortmayer attributes his program's success at Yorktown High School to the embedded culture of caring. "We want swimmers to care about being on the team," he declared, and all that means from practices to swim meets and ultimately a commitment to doing what is best for the whole team. "Its a message that resonates with casual swimmers as well as the most serious athletes."

When Torey first started to develop strength-training exercises with Olympian, Torri Huske, it was on a small scale--just 20 minutes a day a few times each week. Then she started to see the results! From a young age, Torri recognized, understood and practiced the science of nutrition, hydration and rest. When an athlete can see the benefits of how these work in synergy, they learn to adopt them pretty quickly.
