HONOLULU, Hawaii, June 6. THROUGHOUT the week in Hawaii at the National Club Swimming Association's All-American meet, Swimming World Radio spoke with each individual swimmer to ask them to introduce themselves to our listeners.
We asked each athlete to provide the following five key bits of information: their Name, Club, Club Coach, Best Event/Stroke and Something Interesting About Them.
In our fourth-and-final piece of the series, the West Men, who are under the tutelage of Jeff Cooper of the Oakland Live Y'ers and Soliman Eid of the Aquazot Swim Club, put forth their responses to the questions.
