As we honor Memorial Day, we remember and express gratitude for the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country, along with the military families who continue to support and serve our communities.

As you enjoy the holiday weekend, please prioritize water safety, look out for one another, and stay safe around the water. 🏊🖤💛

We are taking a moment to wish our the one and only Marquez Martin, our Fearless Head Coach of the 2025-2026 MHS Warhawk Swim Season, a Happy Birthday and Warhawk Thank you for your leadership and support this season! His leadership set up a team environment that allowed us to be the best student-athletes we could be. Coach Martin brought a high rigor level of strength and conditioning to our program, teaching athletes what good form looks like in the weight room and the why behind conditioning workouts. He planned a phenomenal and intentional swim schedule that met everyone's availability needs and exposed us to some of the best competition in Georgia Swim & Dive to prepare us for the Henry County Championship. He made sure we never had to worry about transportation, finances, or nutritional meals for athletes and coaches. We appreciate you for everything and hope you have an amazing birthday and summer. Thank you and Happy Birthday Coach Martin!
