Ethan McKinney — Tue, 28 Jun 2022 11:40:52 GMT

Hello!

My name is Ethan and I am a sophomore swimmer at Hanover College. I also swim for the Healthplex Master’s Program in Indianapolis!

I just wanted to get the word out that Hanover College in Indiana is in need of a new head coach. If anyone is interested or if you know anyone interested, please apply by contacting Lynn Hall. Her email address is hall@hanover.edu

Hanover College is a division III school in the HCAC conference. It is a great team with hard working athletes. We deserve a good coach and some stability!

Please help my team out :)

Bill Meier keep doing amazing things!

Helping people learn how to transcend their fears, feel safe in the water, and potentially save swimmers’ lives is a continuous reward, says Mr. Meier. “You’re standing next to them. You’re comforting them. And it is just a way to feel other people’s pain and help take that away.”

Trip Hedrick Breaks 65-69 World Record in the 50 Fly

Kyle Deery — Tue, 17 Aug 2021 04:59:09 GMT

😮 "Hedrick’s swim came after years of heart issues according to the Mayo Clinic. At the age of 46, Hedrick suffered his first heart attack, which included a 99% blockage of his left anterior descending artery. In the resulting surgery, Hedrick had multiple stents placed in his heart to alleviate the blockage. Although that initially worked, he also had to undergo coronary bypass surgery, which helped his condition." 024V3

Love their quotes: “My celebration was to meet friends I used to swim with. I had lunch with a friend who I competed against in college and swam in masters with me."
