Riggs proclaims this class to be one of \u201cthe strongest classes in years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Their girls\u2019 class is headlined by sprinter Samantha Hall, flyer Georgia Baldus, Maggie Miller, and one of the top ranked West Virginia prep swimmers in Marah Bieger.<\/p>\n<p>Drew Damich, breaststroker and IMer Andrew Riebel, and native West Virginian Nathan Carr are some of the top recruits on the boys\u2019 side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Press Release:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>West Virginia University swimming and diving coach Vic Riggs announced today the 2015-2016 incoming recruiting class.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 28 student-athletes will join the program, with 13 accompanying the men\u2019s squad and 15 earning spots on the women\u2019s team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have one of our strongest classes in years,\u201d noted Riggs. \u201cEach brings a strong academic background along with their swimming talents. The staff has done a great job with this class, and it is one of our most diverse. We feel we have addressed many of our needs. We continue to attract the top talent in the state of West Virginia with the addition of six West Virginians along with several international and country-wide new Mountaineers. Each member of this class brings a strong desire and commitment to the Mountaineer swimming and diving program, and I look forward to watching them grow and develop into strong Mountaineers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The diving program welcomes six new faces, including four women and two men.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the largest recruiting class I have had coming in since I started coaching at WVU in 2010,\u201d said diving coach Michael Grapner. \u201cAll of the divers have excellent foundation and are all trained on springboard and tower. I think each of these athletes will be competitive and excellent representation of WVU and the men\u2019s and women\u2019s swimming and diving team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis incoming class of 2019 is a very talented and versatile group,\u201d Riggs said.\u00a0 \u201cDiving coach Michael Grapner has done a great job solidifying the women&#8217;s diving team with his additions to the program who will be replacing a very strong departed senior class while adding two talented men to the men&#8217;s team as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The entire class can be found below:<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Women\u2019s<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Swimmers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Georgia Baldus (Fort Wayne, Ind.\/Snider High School)<\/p>\n<p>Marah Bieger (Columbus, Ind.\/Columbus North High School)<\/p>\n<p>Emilie Chambers (The Woodlands, Texas\/Home Schooled)<\/p>\n<p>Lexi Glassmire (Reading, Pa.\/Schuylkill Valley High School)<\/p>\n<p>Sam Hall (Elkins, W.Va.\/Elkins High School)<\/p>\n<p>Emma Harris (Canberra, Australia\/Canberra Girls Grammar School)<\/p>\n<p>Sydnee Karam (Nazareth, Pa.\/Bethlehem Catholic High School)<\/p>\n<p>Maggie Miller (Buckhannon, W.Va.\/Buckhannon Upshur High School)<\/p>\n<p>Emma Mitchell (London, England\/Chislehurst and Sidcup Grammar School)<\/p>\n<p>Madison Noga (Charlottesville, Va.\/Albermarle High School)<\/p>\n<p>Rachel Ward (Fairfax, Va.\/W.T.
