Deegan Signs Letter of Intent

 Senior Sean Deegan has signed his national letter of intent to swim for the Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, MO.  This is an up and coming program that placed in the top four at the Division II swimming and diving championships the past four seasons, including a 2nd place finish in the 07-08 season. 

Coach Grooms had this to say about Sean:

"I am very excited to sign Sean and welcome him to the Miner Swim Program. The combination of Sean’s academic success as well as his talent in the pool makes him an ideal fit for our university.

Sean has a very solid background coming from your program along with Coach Haley and the high school team. I saw Sean swim as a junior and was very impressed with his technique. He has made tremendous improvement over his senior year and I feel like he is only going to continue to get better. Sean will be a sprinter for us and we look to develop him from 50-200 in the freestyles and possibly in the backstroke as well. Sean has the potential to be an impact swimmer from day one and continue to be one of our best ever!"

This is very exciting day for Sean and his family.   Make sure to wish Sean the best of luck next year. 

Coach Brian
