The town lacked a signature competition pool beyond local high school and recreational facilities, but a beautiful new aquatic center is ready to open to the public Monday. In a Friday event that dedicated the Deaconess Aquatic Center, King was present and participated with nine youth swimmers in a ceremonial first race across the pool.<\/p>\n<p>The facility includes a 50-meter pool plus diving boards as well as areas for lessons and recreation. King believes that adding such a presence to a community previously lacking in swimming resources will be a huge boost to Evansville. In addition to the local impact, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitevansville.com\/sports\/deaconess-aquatic-center\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deaconess Aquatic Center<\/a> is scheduled to host the Division II NCAA championships in 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201dThis facility is going to change this community forever,\u201d King said, according to 14 News. \u201cIt\u2019s bringing aquatics to a much broader audience, and not just competitive. While the competitive swimming side of it is obviously fantastic, it\u2019s so much more than that. I think it\u2019s going to bring a real impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added, \u201cGrowing up I never thought we\u2019d be here, so to see it finally be done and be complete and have kids swimming in the pool is really, really cool,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>King grew up in Evansville and lived there until she began her collegiate career at Indiana University in 2015, and she continues to train at IU with head coach\u00a0<strong>Ray Looze<\/strong>. King became a local star at the 2016 Olympics when she won gold in the 100 breaststroke, and this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/in-weathering-disappointment-lilly-king-leads-by-example-for-team-usa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">she won three additional medals at the Tokyo Olympics<\/a>.
