In Coleman’s Carpool we get the insider’s perspective on your favorite swimmers. SwimSwam Head of Production, Coleman Hodges, invites swimmers to take a ride with him and talk about anything…except swimming. Mostly.
I cheated. We talked about swimming. But we also talked about experiences at a swim meet that WERE NOT swimming related.
This week I was on staff for the Mid State’s All Star meet in Indianapolis at the IUPUI Natatorium. The meet hosts the best of the best of 14-under swimming from 5 LSC’s (Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, Missouri Valley) for a 2-day, 2-session timed finals event. I was coaching for the Missouri Valley staff, and therefore participated in the LSC-wide team travel bus trip. On our way home, I asked some of our swimmers about their highlights from the weekend.
And I mean really, does it get better than 11-13 year-olds talking about how much they love swimming and causing mischief with their friends?
Oh Kyle. Now I know why you don’t come to morning practice very often.
