Wow Meg that's exciting. Never would have thought that I would have found another Vandy Commodore on these posts. I also swam at that intramural meet when I was in med school. The pool in Memorial Gym is actually GONE. They had to make room for facilities for the nationally ranked baseball team...They do have a beautiful student rec. center with a great pool where I sometimes swim. Actually last year they were thinking about bringing back women's swimming. I think that they would have done well with recruiting especially since some of the minor athletic programs like tennis, golf and lacrosse have had such success AND I'm told that Vandy is a HOT school right now. But instead they instituted a BOWLING team. How pathetic...
Heather, you're lucky that you're still in Nashville, where being a Commodore is not looked on as something to be pitied! It is not easy being a little black & gold island in a sea of blue in the heart of Wildcat Country!
I knew about the new pool, but did not realize the old armpit in Memorial Gym is gone. I swam in the City Meet there every year when I was in high school!
Pretty sad we got bowling instead of women's swimming. And it doesn't seem like it's even a GOOD bowling team, according to what I read in Commodore Nation!
