Conrad "Connie" Carroll Award The award was established in 1982 in recognition of excellence in officiating. In 1973 Connie attended his first National YMCA Swimming and Diving Championship Meet in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Connie served in just about every swim official position for the next 8 years - timer, head timer, score keeper, stroke judge, electronic timing operated, etc. He truly was an official's official!To fully understand Connie's contribution to society, one must look at the extra activities to which he devoted so much of his free time. A devoted church member serving on almost every board or trustee position, dedicated member of the Optimist Club, coordinated and chaperoned numerous high school functions and attended every athletic contest possible along with nearly every other school activity possible. In all these activities, he never sought the "limelight" but was willing and able to do the tasks that were challenging and necessary to hold efficient, well officiated events. These things are so often overlooked and under appreciated by competitors, their families, and spectators. But without them, events could not go forward. |
