    Shayna Jack’s drawn-out anti-doping case has finally been given a hearing date, with the appeal against her reduced two-year ban scheduled for June 28 and 29.

    Jack’s appeal will take place through a videolink, with the Australian swim star defending herself over two days in front of a panel of three ­arbitrators.

    It is expected Jack’s defense team will again call on several high-profile witnesses to vouch for her character, including coaches and swimmers likely to be picked on the Dolphins squad for this year’s Tokyo Olympics.

The man in the chair is Jim Pevitt and he is being helped into the ocean for his daily ritual: an icy ocean dunking.
