    So far this season, Anna Peplowski has been second to none in the pool.

    The senior has won every swimming event she has entered since returning to the Metamora Co-op team this season after a two-year absence.

    โ€œShe has not lost a race this year, and she has swum every event except diving,โ€ Redbirds coach Shane Morrison said.

    Stonehill is getting its “feet wet” with the addition of women’s swimming to the varsity athletics program.

    “We always look for new opportunities for student-athletes โ€“ since swimming is a Northeast-10 sport and one we don’t offer one, we wanted to add swimming,” Director of Athleticsย Dean O’Keefeย said.

    The addition of the women’s swimming team was announced in September 2019 and with that came the search for a head coach of the team.

  • Watch Mack Horton And Ian Thorpe Discuss The Future Of Sport

    Two athletes who know all about competing at the highest levels are Aussie Olympics champions of the pool, Ian Thorpe and Mack Horton. Twenty years ago, 17-year-old Thorpe turned from a teenager into a worldwide sensation, when he took home three gold and two silver medals from the iconic Sydney Olympic Games. He has since gone on to cement his place in Australian sporting history, winning five Olympic and 11 world championship gold medals along the way.

    Mack Horton might have been a little too young to compete inย Sydneyย โ€“ he was just four at the time โ€“ but has since proved himself one of the countryโ€™s most gifted swimmers, winning Olympic gold at Rio in 2016. Next, he has realigned his training regime, as he sets his eyes onย the Tokyo Games in 2021.ย 

    Fair to say itโ€™s been a big year. And since 2020 has been all about change โ€“ย some good, some bad โ€“ we wanted to take a moment to celebrate those who are shaping the world we live in.

    Taking the plunge for the first time in over 6 months – the reopening of Tollcross international swimming centre has been a long time coming for these regulars. While it was all smiles poolside there’s been a swell of concern around the delayed opening of many Glasgow Life venues. The charity operates 171 libraries, museums and leisure facilities across the city but to date only 61 have reopened. With an estimated ยฃ38 million pounds in lost revenue the worry is the remainder will stay closed.
