Casey Francis Selected for National Open Water Training Camp

Congratulations to Casey Francis (18 years old), class of 2013, who has been selected to the USA Swimming National Open Water training camp in Ft. Myers, Florida starting June 5, 2013.  This is the first time Casey Francis has ever been selected for a USA National Team training camp. Casey qualified for this camp by finishing in the top 8 at the USA Swimming Open Water Championships last year.  At the camp Casey will learn for the top coaches and athletes in Open Water swimming the techniques and training needed to race in Open Water meets versus normal pool swimming meets. 

 
This can be a great stepping stone to making a International Open Water meet for USA Swimming and help prepare Casey for the 2016 Olympic Trials in Open Water swimmiing.
