Born in 1911, he attended Springfield College, where he was not only a team captain, but a college All-American who set a national collegiate record in the 300 yard individual medley.<\/p>\n<p>Silvia graduated in 1934, and then coached swimming and lifesaving there from 1937 until his retirement in 1978. In time, his athletes set 14 world records. More than 200 of his swimmers earned All-America recognitions while winning 214 dual meets and 10 New England championships. At least 50 of his athletes became college swim coaches.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the best he coached were Bill Yorzyk and Paul Asmuth. Silvia taught Yorzyk to swim butterfly with a double-kick-to-one-arm-stroke and a two-down, one-up breathing pattern. His 200 meter fly win at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics (where Silvia was an assistant coach) was the only U.S. men\u2019s swimming gold medal of the Games. His other supremely decorated athlete was Paul Asmuth, winner of seven World Professional Marathon Federation titles (1980-85, 1988).<\/p>\n<p>Eager to share his love for the sport, Silvia and his wife, Ruth, established the Pine Knoll Swim School in Springfield, Mass. In their backyard, they built a 6 x 25-yard pool and reconfigured a second pool to accommodate divers. At Pine Knoll, Silvia welcomed and instructed thousands of beginning to world-class athletes from 1957 to 1995. There, in addition to his daughter and son-in-law instructors, he invited a variety of high-profile athletes (Asmuth, et al.), recruited guest coaches and employed Sunday videotaping sessions and extensive underwater technique critiques.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy father was very strong in character and a softie, too. When you are coaching, you wear many hats. He could have been a lot of things: a doctor, lawyer, psychologist. He taught you to stand up for what you believe in. That\u2019s gotten me through a lot of things in my professional career.\u201d &#8211;<em>Susan Laing (daughter and coach at Pine Knoll Swim School)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>To hear more about coach Red from the likes of Don Megerle, Bill Yorzyk, and Paul Asmuth,\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Check out the February issue of Swimming World Magazine, available now!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2020\/swimming-world-magazine-february-2020-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"413248\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/?attachment_id=413248\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"800,1070\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Swimming World February 2020 Cover &#8211; Ranomi Kromowidjojo\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Swimming World February 2020 Cover &#8211; Ranomi Kromowidjojo&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-766x1024.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-413248 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo.jpg\" alt=\"Swimming World February 2020 Cover - Ranomi Kromowidjojo\" width=\"800\" height=\"1070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-150x201.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-300x401.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-450x602.jpg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-673x900.jpg 673w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-374x500.jpg 374w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-245x327.jpg 245w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-533x713.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Get <em>Swimming World Magazine<\/em> and <em>Swimming World Biweekly<\/em> FREE When You<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/product-category\/ishof-membership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/product-category\/ishof-membership\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1522345712821000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGfwbLD2OaI21g28efcR0DZZlQSOQ\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Become A Member of the International Swimming Hall of Fame<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Want More?
