The Swimmer and her Immediate family.

Normal , ILL

It figures, the "star" wore a black swim suit. The team was using their best sleek suits to enable them to challenge a couple of records. They succeeded.

And she's the only one not wearing red. Opportunity for a photo of her this month for an eligible entry?

She wanted to go to grad school, but with all the cuts at NIH, there are very few funded positions in the areas she is interested in. She intends to take a year or so off, move to St Louis, and take a job in a medical tech laboratory. She believe that will give her the edge she needs when she returns to grad school.

I just realize the sign on the wall says it’s senior day, a proud day and makes sense why everyone is there. Does she have plans for any post grad work, going for a masters or more? Paul

Yes, she has built up a lot of upper body muscle. She is a long distance swimmer, and will swim the grueling 1500 yard and 1000 yard freestyle in the conference championships. This despite having severe pain in both shoulders as a result of swimming so much. A lot of swimmers hurt all the time. Her younger sister, a sophomore, also swims in HS and she has started hurting this last year. It is a tough sport for a non contact support.

She looks like she has a swimmers physique. Has she competed in any of the qualifying matches leading to the Olympics? Paul
