Q&A With Indian River State’s Head Coach Sion Brinn<\/span><\/h1>\n
By Michael J. Stott<\/span><\/p>\n
A five-time NCAA All-American and two-time Olympian, Jamaican Sion Brinn has returned to his transplanted roots at Indian River State College and has continued the Pioneer\u2019s record run of consecutive national junior college team titles: men (46), women (38).<\/strong><\/p>\n
Sion Brinn was a two-time Olympian, representing Jamaica in 1996 and Great Britain in 2000. Swimming for Great Britain, he earned a silver (200 free relay) and bronze medal (200 medley relay) at the 1998 European Short Course Championships in Sheffield, England. A year later, he won a bronze medal in the 400 medley relay at the FINA World Short Course Championships in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

SWIMMING WORLD:<\/span><\/strong> You matriculated and swam at both Indian River and LSU. Who were some of your swimming and coaching influences?
\nCOACH SION BRINN:<\/span><\/strong> All of the coaches during my college years had a big influence on me. Chris Ip and Jeff Cavana were the ones who coached me most of those years. Honestly, any coach who oversaw my training at any time also played a major part.<\/p>\n
SW:<\/span><\/strong> As a native of Jamaica, what brought you to the United States?
\nSB:<\/span> <\/strong>My sister, Rachel, was recruited and swam at Indian River in 1990. At the time, I was not interested in swimming, but only did it to help my water polo. Turns out, the water polo helped my swimming speed, so I started focusing on swimming more and got the opportunity to walk on at The River the following year. My dad wouldn\u2019t let me miss that opportunity, so I went with hopes of making the team, and hopefully earning a scholarship eventually.<\/p>\n
SW:<\/span><\/strong> You were a well-decorated college swimmer (19x All-American) as well as a two-time Olympian. Why the switch from representing Jamaica in 1996 to Great Britain in 2000?
\nSB:<\/span><\/strong> Difficult question to answer, but when all factors are put together, it needed to be done.<\/p>\n
SW:<\/span><\/strong> How did your extensive international swimming experience prepare you for a college coaching career?
\nSB:<\/span><\/strong> As I progressed through college, I started to travel more to international competitions. Other than at the major internationals (World Champs, Commonwealth, Olympic Games), I often traveled on my own and relied on coaches who I had met through fellow competitors to help me with warm-ups, splits, advice, etc. I started taking an interest in the various ways they coached and how the swimmers reacted. You learn a lot when it\u2019s just you and a backpack. I used all these experiences to help formulate my own ideas on training and coaching.<\/p>\n

\nby Dan D\u2019Addona<\/strong>
\nIndiana\u2019s Carmel High School has won the girls\u2019 state swimming and diving championships for 34 straight years, a feat unequaled by any other high school\u2014not only in swimming, but in any other sport.<\/p>\n

017 PREP POWER<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Andy Ross<\/strong>
\nSince Swimming World first began recognizing the top high school teams in the country in 1971, The Bolles School of Jacksonville, Fla., has won 18 national prep school titles\u201410 boys\u2019, eight girls\u2019.

020 THE GOLDEN YEARS OF HIGH SCHOOL SWIMMING<\/strong><\/span>
\nby David Rieder<\/strong>
\nPublic schools Santa Clara and Mission Viejo built high school swimming dynasties from the 1960s through the early 1980s. Not only did they dominate high school swimming, but unlike today, they also produced many of the swimmers from that era who competed in the Olympics.<\/p>\n
026 STILL CHASING EXCELLENCE<\/strong><\/span>
\nby John Lohn<\/strong>
\nMatt Grevers does not need to achieve anything more to stamp himself as an all-time great. But even at 35, there is a desire to accomplish more, and there is no reason to doubt Grevers can come through.<\/p>\n
029 SUMMER OF SPEED<\/strong><\/span>
\nby John Lohn<\/strong>
\nPolitics interfered at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, preventing South Africa\u2019s Jonty Skinner from competing head-to-head against the USA\u2019s Jim Montgomery in the men\u2019s 100 freestyle. But that summer, they became the first two swimmers to break the 50-second barrier in the event, with Montgomery clocking 49.99 at Montreal, followed by Skinner with a 49.44 at the AAU National Championships three weeks later.<\/p>\n
032 THE TROUBLE WITH SPRINTERS (Part 3): GARY HALL JR.<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Bruce Wigo<\/strong>
\nThe theme of this series of articles has been that sprinters are different from other swimmers\u2014athletes who have historically been considered troublemakers by the establishment, but who have been great for the sport. This month\u2019s featured sprinter is Gary Hall Jr.\u2014one of the greatest in Olympic history…but, perhaps, one of the most maligned and misunderstood.<\/p>\n
COACHING<\/p>\n
038 SWIMMING TECHNIQUE CONCEPTS: TRUST IN SCIENCE<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Rod Havriluk<\/strong>
\nBased on the many counterproductive technique elements that are conventional wisdom, it seems logical to ask why there is not a greater acceptance of science in swimming. The purpose of this article is to give swimmers and coaches some very real reasons to trust in science and scientists.<\/p>\n
040 SPECIAL SETS: BACK TO BASICS<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Michael J. Stott<\/strong>
