KNOXVILLE – Tennessee Aquatics will have its second annual breast cancer fundraiser this weekend with the Back 4 Breasts Clinic on Nov. 1.

The event, originally created last year around the same time that Tennessee head coach Matt Kredich’s wife, Kim, was diagnosed with breast cancer, is near and dear to the Volunteer family.

Last year, the team raised more than $11,000 during the Breast 4 Breasts Clinic. That event featured breaststroke stars Micah Lawrence and Brad Craig.

This year, Tennessee is looking to raise funds for the Breast Health Outreach Program at the UT Medical Center’s Cancer Institute with a Back 4 Breasts Clinic. This backstroke clinic will not only include a short clinic on backstroke technique from Kredich, it will also feature Pan American Team member Sean Lehane of the Vols and Stanford’s World Champion Maya DiRado as the backstroke demonstrators.
