Four-Year Ban On Carolyn Marberry Ends

A four-year USA Swimming suspension on Carolyn Marberry has ended, and her name has been removed from USA Swimming’s banned list and the U.S. Center for SafeSport database.

Marberry was originally suspended on November 20, 2014, according to a previous version of the USA Swimming temporary suspension list. Marberry was listed as being based in the state of Mississippi. She was suspended for “other misconduct,” with four sections of USA Swimming’s Code of Conduct listed.

304.3.4 deals with requirements to report sexual misconduct. 304.3.8 prohibits the providing of alcohol to underage athletes. 305.1 deals with inappropriate touching, and 304.3.19 is a catch-all that prohibits behavior detrimental to the image or reputation of USA Swimming.

The five-year suspension ended on November 20, 2019. Marberry was removed from both USA Swimming’s list of individuals temporarily suspended or ineligible, and from the U.S. Center for SafeSport’s database of banned individuals, where she was previously listed under “suspension.”

Temporary suspensions weren’t publicly listed in 2014, when Marberry’s suspension was handed down. The list became public in early 2016.

Among swimming-related names, the next temporary suspensions to end aren’t until 2021. Both Travis Mims and Lois Daigneault should see suspensions end in 2021.
