Timothy Layer Head Coach

Tim graduated from Grand Valley State University with degrees in Sports Management and Hospitality, and later earned his Master’s in Elementary Education. Currently a full-time teacher, his life has always revolved around the water—he practically began swimming before he could walk. Tim swam competitively for 14 years with the Roselle Racers and the Lake Park Swim Team, while also attending numerous competitive swim camps and clubs. His passion for the sport even led him to found the swim and dive club at Grand Valley State.

Now an experienced leader on the deck, Tim serves as a swim coach at Lake Park High School and is thrilled to be returning for his 12th season coaching the Roselle Racers this summer. Outside of teaching and coaching, Tim runs a professional DJ business and works with the Windy City Bulls entertainment crew—bringing that same high energy, crowd motivation, and excitement right to the pool deck. He loves to inspire his athletes to refine their technique, stay focused, and drop time, and he is incredibly excited to welcome back the Racers families for another successful, fast, and fun summer season!

Madeline Baratta Coach

My name is Madeline Baratta, I swam for the Roselle Racers for 12 years myself and continued swimming at the varsity level throughout all four years of high school. I am currently studying nursing on a pre-med track at the University of Tennessee. In addition to swimming, I have worked at the Roselle Pool for the past five years — lifeguarding for three years and serving as a manager for the last two. The Roselle pool and swim team have always been such a big part of my life, and I’m excited to give back by helping swimmers grow their skills, confidence, and love for the sport this summer!
