Her teammates, coaches and the swimming world may not articulate what her performances forebode, but everyone anticipates greatness from the freshman at her first NCAAs to be held later this month in Greensboro, N.C. “My parents always say ‘DYB’ before my races,” says Simone. The acronym stands for DO YOUR BEST. She adds, “Whether my best is good or bad, it’s all anyone can ask for.” (See story, page 16, and related story, page 20.) 016 [PHOTO PROVIDED BY STANFORD UNIVERSITY] 020 TWO-TEAM TUSSLE JUNIOR SWIMMER by Jeff Commings Defending champion Georgia and the 030 GOLDMINDS: SWIMMING 101— University of California should contend for BACK TO THE BASICS this year’s women’s NCAA Division I team by Wayne Goldsmith title, with Cal primed to claim the trophy it Here are the seven basic swimming skills was expected to win last year. that are at the core of all great swimming performances.

  • Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S
    Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Michigan wins fi rst championship since 1995, 12th overall: — When Michigan’s Bruno Ortiz pulled himself out of the water after swimming the anchor leg in the 400- yard freestyle relay at the 2013 Division I Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships, the singing started. “Hail to the Victors” echoed around the Indiana University Natatorium at IUPUI March 30, beginning with two Michigan spectator sections on one side of the building and carrying over to the Michigan bench area on the pool deck. The Wolverines did not win the 400 free relay; they fi nished second. But it didn’t matter. Michigan had wrapped up its fi rst national team title since 1995 long before that fi nal relay event. It was the 12th national title for Michigan, and meant it was no longer tied with Ohio State for the overall lead in Division I men’s titles. “This morning, we just kind of let our passion drive us. And that was it,” said Connor Jaeger, who began Michigan’s title drive on the fi nal night of the three-day meet with a victory in the 1,650-yard freestyle. He also won the 500 free in the meet’s fi rst individual race. Michigan’s victory halted a two-year title run by California, which fi nished second. “We started four years ago working on this,” said Michigan’s fi fth-year coach Mike Bottom. “You do it one day at a time; you do it one student-athlete at a time.

  • An Open Letter to USA Swimming and Its CEO Tim Hinchey Fix the Cause
    An Open Letter to USA Swimming and its CEO Tim Hinchey Fix the Cause of Your Sexual Abuse Epidemic, Not Just the Symptoms For decades, USA Swimming has treated the sexual abuse of minor swimmers as a “symptom” by focusing treatment on the coach. This treatment has primarily consisted of covering up for the criminal sexual behavior of its member coaches. This widespread cover up within USA Swimming has been well chronicled1. This Open Letter is demanding that Mr. Tim Hinchey, CEO of USA Swimming, fix the root cause of the sexual abuse epidemic which continues to afflict the sport of swimming. Having been deeply involved in the handling of sex abuse claims against USA Swimming for more than a decade, it is clear to us that there remains a deeply embedded culture within your organization which condones the criminal sexual behavior of coaches towards its underage athletes. This culture is similar to that of the Catholic Church, where a long-standing unofficial code enabled rampant sexual abuse by punishing those who report and rewarding those who remain silent. This must end, and it must end now. On June 10, 2020, we held a press conference to announce the filing of several new lawsuits against USA Swimming2. At that time, we asked that you, Mr. Hinchey, take immediate action against those who enabled the pervasive sex abuse within your sport. While some action was taken by you since that time with regard to a few individuals3, only one is known to have any involvement in this scandal. Further, there was nothing said or done by you to indicate these actions were taken in response to our demand to clean up the sport.
