We can't believe that Syracuse Swimming is considering ending a 90-year swimming tradition by cutting the men's and women's swimming teams. A swim program should be a "given" at any huge University. The more swim programs that are cut, the more our sport is effected. Please help save the Syracuse swim program by clicking the link below and signing the petition. Pass this link along. Let's help Syracuse from making a mistake they will definitely regret in the future.

(Some relatives went to Syracuse, so that seemed a close enough affiliation for me to make a fan vote.)
But we aren't superdelegates. From the Web page:
Fan voting will play a role in determining award winners, but will not be the sole
means of determination. The Awards Committee will make final
determination of award winners.
And it's still a big step to saving Syracuse swimming - or the Rhode Island ("Ocean State") men's swimming.
Pools and programs seem to be going under with accelerating frequency. Maybe an article for the mag?

From our good friend Phil Whitten:
Help save Syracuse swimming. VOTE
EVERYONE IS AMAZING; TO HAVE NATALIE'S SCORE JUMP BY 23% !!! SINCE FRIDAY MORNING, AND HAVE HER LEADING THE MEN'S BASKETBALL PLAYER AS WELL IS ASTOUNDING( INTERESTING IS HE WAS ADDED LATER ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON; THE ADMINISTRATION DOES NOT WANT TO SEE A SWIMMER GARNER THE MOST VOTES- THE PROGRAM IS SUPPOSED TO BE GONE IN 3 YEARS!!! )
I AM SENDING THIS ON AGAIN; I KNOW THAT SOME OF YOU HAVE ALREADY VOTED AND THAT YOU HATE CHAIN E-MAILS, SO DO I, BUT WOULD YOU FORWARD THIS ON TO AS MANY AS YOU CAN IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK? I WOULD LOVE TO SEE NATALIE GET 50%. IF NOTHING ELSE IT WILL MAKE AN ENORMOUS STATEMENT THAT THE UNIVERSITY CANNOT IGNORE.
TAKE CARE, AND THANKS!!!!
