Newspaper story on a masters team

Here's a nice writeup on the masters team in Beaufort, SC: www.beaufortgazette.com/.../5955112p-5242196c.html I imagine Skip Thompson will remember Coach Fetters. Anyway, I don't see too many write-ups about masters swimming in the paper, or adult sports in general, so this is good to see!

    "Sounds like a jerk" . . ??? Give me a break . . . it sounds like his team loves him (stockholm syndrome perhaps?) and they have bonded as a team. He sounds like a great coach and it sounds like a great team . . . not for everybody, but who cares. Those swimmers sound like a good and lucky bunch to me. Let those who don't want to compete swim somewhere else . . . who says that teams/coaches have to be all things to all people? Just those who want to pack the pool with swimmers, keep it crowded and maximize income.
