While he was our Head Coach, Bill was the anchor of our program, coaching many of our swimmers at the Age Group level with quite a few obtaining Team, State, and Zone records.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">&#8220;Bill was an exacting coach with a stern fa\u00e7ade, who got the best out of his swimmers.\u00a0 Underneath that curmudgeon-like exterior, however, was a kind and gentle soul who had a great sense of humor and devoted his life to our team when he was its coach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">&#8220;Swimming was always part of Bill, who was a native of Connecticut. He graduated in 1977 from Southern Connecticut State University, where he was a nationally ranked swimmer and water polo player. When he was a senior, Bill won the Robert B. Muir Award as New England\u2019s top senior swimmer. His team SCSU inducted Bill into its Sport Hall of Fame in 1995.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">&#8220;Bill also held many leadership positions as a volunteer in the swimming community.
