Gifts to Swimming and Diving contribute to...
Help the Saint Louis University swimming and diving team reach its goal of 50 donors during this year’s Battle of the Billikens crowdfunding competition.
“The current student-athletes representing the SLU swimming and diving team are some of the hardest-working people I have ever come across, and they are some of the best teammates that you will ever meet. I view a team’s culture as the sum of all its individual parts, and we have 55 total athletes who share the same mindset and teammate mentality. When the individual succeeds here, the team feels successful… Focusing on current athletes helps attract more talent and develop great human beings, something that our University has always prioritized and something that I will prioritize as the leader of this incredible team. I want my student-athletes to have an experience as good, if not better, than I did throughout my four years at SLU. Focusing on every aspect of their development as young adults will always be my top priority.”
— Ryan McCoy, Head Coach
