The Morning Swim Show, Nov. 16, 2010: Erica Meissner Continues Auburn’s Rhodes Scholarship Tradition

PHOENIX, Arizona, November 16. FOR the second consecutive year, Auburn University's swimming team could have a Rhodes Scholar, and on today's edition of The Morning Swim Show, Erica Meissner talks about her decision to apply for the prestigious scholarship.

Meissner says she hadn't considered the Rhodes scholarship until fellow Tiger Jordan Anderson applied last year and was accepted, which made her think it was possible for her. She talks about the topics she hopes to discuss in the Rhodes Scholar finalist interview, from her swimming prowess to her early days participating in multiple athletic and artistic endeavors.
