2021 Lifeguard Staff
Lifeguards:
Eli Brignac
Hi, my name is Eli Brignac. I have just graduated from Garnet Valley High School and will attend the University of Delaware Honors College to study computer science. I have been on the swim team at Graylyn since I was 5 years old and this will be my third time lifeguarding at Graylyn. My hair is very long so I like to put it up in a bun when it is hot outside. In my free time I like to hang out with friends, exercise, listen to podcasts, and play chess. My favorite memory is of paddle boarding on a lake in the Adirondack mountains with my family and friends.
Lauren Gilbert
Hi, I’m Lauren! This is my fifth year at Graylyn Crest and my second year as a guard. I go to Tower Hill School and I am a rising senior. My favorite memory has been swimming on the swim team. I usually don't have free time, especially during the school year, but when I do it's because of my chronic procrastination which allows me to spend most of this time switching between tik tok and snapchat. I’ve been swimming since I was 7 and in recent years, I’ve swam at the Brandywine YMCA, Dupont Country Club, Graylyn Crest, and for my school where we have taken two consecutive state championship titles. If you’d like to hear me talk for a very long time, ask me about my dogs, I’ll probably end up showing you videos of them jumping into my pool in a matter of minutes. I can label every country on a map in like 6 minutes, I can talk backwards and I am very opinionated on flavors of Gatorade. I’m excited for another amazing summer!
Molly Grant
Hi, my name is Molly. I am a rising senior at Padua Academy. My favorite subjects are chemistry, biology, and computer science. My favorite clubs I have been a part of at school are robotics, Science Olympiad, and students against drunk driving. I have been a part of the Graylyn swim team for 12 years. I have also swum for the Brandywine YMCA, the Dupont Country Club, and my school Padua. This will be my second-year lifeguarding at Graylyn. I also lifeguard at the Dupont Country club and I work at a local law firm.
Devan Haschak
Hi, I’m Devan Haschak. I am a junior at Concord High School and this is my second year working at Graylyn.
My name is Julian Iacono, I am 20 years old. I attend Ithaca College and am pursuing a degree in Writing for Film, Television, and Emerging Media. I have been a member of Graylyn since the summer of 2008, almost 13 years now. My favorite memory as a Gator was winning a meet against Green Acres by just 2 points, which if I remember correctly, started our tradition of doing a second cheer during the freestyle relays. Other than swimming, for fun I enjoy playing video games with my friends, going paintballing, and messing around with electronics
