From earlier post that thought Coach Nash wasn't doing well.
COLLEGE STATION, Texas- Texas A&M will seek to continue its long string of top 25 national finishes with seven qualifiers to the 2006 NCAA Men’s Swimming & Diving Championships.
Representing Texas A&M at the NCAA Championships in Atlanta March 23-25 will be swimmers Ozzie Gardner, Ryan Kemp, Scott Newmann, Francisco Picasso, Andrew Sullivant and Joe Watson, along with diver Eric Sehn.
Texas A&M has posted 10 straight top 25 finishes with a highwater finish of No. 10 in 1999. Last year’s Aggie squad finished No. 15 nationally in Jay Holmes’ first season as head swim coach at Texas A&M.
Always a mainstay of Aggie swimming, Texas A&M qualified a pair of relays for the Championships. Watson, Sullivant, Gardner and Kemp will swim on the Aggies’ 200-yard freestyle relay, and Newmann, Sullivant, Gardner and Picasso will make up the 400-yard free relay.
Sehn, who swept all three diving disciplines at the Big 12 Championships for the second straight year in 2006, will represent the Aggies on the one- and three-meter springboards and the 10-meter platform. Last season, Sehn earned All-America honors in all three events and set a school record by scoring 35 points at the NCAA meet.
Qualifying to swim in the individual races are: Newmann in the 100 butterfly and 100 and 200 free; Sullivant in the 50 and 100 free, Gardener in the 50 and 100 free; Watson in the 50 free; and Picasso in the 100 breastroke.
