I’m very disappointed in my child’s collegiate swimming experience. When we talked with Betsy it seemed to be the perfect fit. We were absolutely wrong, after an injury in my kids first year with her she had a bandaid applied and up until this day my kid still has pain…that was three years ago. Thank god my kid will no longer endure this. If my child was unable to swim a certain race due to pain the coach simply placed my kid in another race. I also witnessed kids having injuries and being dismissed from the team. Said kid had better times than others and had a doctors release but as per Betsy.. was off the team. (Even when said kid still participated in every practice) I cant speak on scholarships because we never encountered a problem with that personally, but hearing different things I’m sure that’s the truth. I have plenty of relationships with parents on the team as well as swimmers. I know several parents and family members of swimmers donated quite a bit of money for travel cost etc. during a fund raiser. Where did that money go? Oh yeah, new towels for them team! I always thought we would be so sad to see the end of our child’s swim career, but honestly, we are so thankful it is over.
