Jose Sotillo, the former Aquatic Director at Suburban Swim Center in Newtown Square was charged with embezzling 112K. Suburban is where Brendan Hansen swam during his high school years. In addition, it is home to Legendary Grace Cornelius. Of course, I, a USMS National Champion, is a full fledged product of this organization. Unfortunately, the facility on Gradyville Road will have to be sold. This is so sad because it just seems like every 10 to 12 years, something is wrong with this club. In 1995-1996, the old facility had to be shut down because the roof was going to cave.

Is that the old (50 & 60's) AAU Suburban Swim Club? I had a lot of friends there when I swam for York Y. I think Carl Robey swam for them for awhile. They were an age group powerhouse then. A lot of memories of swimming against them and Vesper Boat Club in the long course meet held every summer in Kelly Pool.
I don't know about Carl Robey but I was coached by Bill Crawford. I was stunned to hear that they had Olympic Trials at Kelly Pool back in the day. When you think of Olympic Trial facilities, you don't think of Kelly Pool.
