Head Coach Lauren Hall has been leading the Cambridge swim and dive program since Cambridge opened in 2012. Hall came to be at Cambridge after being in Maryland coaching at the University of Loyola Maryland where she earned the Female Coach of the Year in 2011 while teaching in Baltimore City and, before that, coaching high school in California.

Coach Hall grew up in Ventura, California and started swimming and playing water polo her freshman year of high school.  By the end of her sophomore season, she was making appearances at the state championships in mid-distance and distance freestyle and relays, and she was able to qualify to compete in those events each year until her graduation.  Hall was named the girls team MVP twice and served two seasons as varsity team captain.  With the help of her coaches and mentors, she was able to be recruited by Connecticut College to both swim and play water polo.

While at Connecticut College, Hall continued to compete in the 100, 200 and 500-yard freestyle events in the NESCAC conference and earned a place on the Northeast National Zone team in water polo.  Hall was named an all-conference athlete among Division I athletes and set the Connecticut College women’s water polo record for the most goals scored in a single season and in a career.

Graduating in 2008, Hall earned her Bachelor’s degree in History and American Studies with a minor in Religious Studies.  Throughout her college experience, Hall continued to come back to her high school program to be a coach of the junior varsity program and assistant to the varsity program.

Hall joined Teach for America and accepted a teaching position in Baltimore, Maryland in 2008, where she also attended the Johns Hopkins University graduate program in education and received her Masters degree in 2010.

Hall moved to Georgia in June of 2011 and was married to husband, Adam Hall, in 2012. She has two children: Charlie, who was born in 2015, and Josephine (Jo), who was born in 2017.

Hall teaches in the social studies department as an AP World History and AP US History teacher.
