Head EHS Swim Coach Kelli Broussard knows to have a top-notch high school program, her junior high program will have to be strong and she is well on her way. The Junior Cyclones had a strong showing taking on University High and one of the premier programs in this area in Johnson City Middle School. When the last ripple had settled in the pool, TAD had finished just 16 points behind JCMS in the overall standing and had taken the top spot in the Girls’ scores.
