Â
"We are extremely proud of the dedication that the swimming and diving team has put into volunteering with the Special Olympics this semester," Tulane Assistant Athletics Director of Student-Athlete Enhancement Dr. Cornell Sneed said. "Between juggling their unbelievable training and practice schedules and their rigorous academic loads, the fact that they make volunteering with the Special Olympics on a consistent basis a priority speaks volumes to their team culture and the amazing job Coach Stancil is doing." Â Â
Â
During these practices, Tulane student-athletes taught attendees on how to swim and about water safety.
Â
"I could not be more proud of our team and the work they have done in the community," Stancil said. "Being a positive influence on today's youth plays a major role in our society and I am thrilled to see our student-athletes making a difference."
