A question about NCAA policies regarding taking a year...
Former Member
between high school and college as an athlete....If a swimmer was approached by a coach with the suggestion of waiting a year before going to college to try to make Olympic trials/improve swimming for better chances at going to a better college/swim program would this be a good thing? Have you ever heard of such a thing? I don't know anything about it and am trying to research it. Thanks.
You're wrong, Ande. Read the rule I posted. In Adrian's case he swam his freshman year at Cal then swam a year with the Race Club before Beijing. This is OK because you've got five years to complete your eligibility once you start school. Next time you see Eddie Reese ask him about it.
