Yeah, Ande what's going on with Kathleen? I've heard rumors that things are not so happy on the women's side. What do you know?

[ande]

Heather,

My understanding is she is no longer on the UT womens team or listed on the Team Roster

I have not read an official announcement. To me, SwimmingWorld.com would be the definitive news source for this & there's nothing so far. She's entered in the Texas Invite and listed as UN, probably for Unattached.

Eddie coached her during the 2010 summer season & she is continuing to train very hard with the UT mens team & post grads.
She's done some impressive sets in the pool and keeps getting stronger in the weight room.


here's a few message board threads & blogs:

Hersey Done at Texas? Superstar Absent in Texas’ Big Win over California


I haven't seen or observed anything about things being not so happy, the lady longhorns are training hard and seem very fired up about their 2010 - 2011 season.

Yeah, Ande what's going on with Kathleen? I've heard rumors that things are not so happy on the women's side. What do you know?

[warmdown]

Some great swims so far. I was espcially impressed with both the men's and women's 400 medly relays last night. I believe I read that the ladies actually broke the school record!

Texas coach Reese recovering from heart surgery

[rtodd]

Great that he caught this and got treatment.

[ande]

Feb. 2nd, 2011. EDDIE Reese is one of the best interviews in the sport of swimming, and this one touches on all the topics. The '11 World Championship team coach talks about the odds of repeating as NCAA Championships, some of his up and coming super stars, the changes in the Longhorn post-grad group, his retirement, and much much more.

Good for him. He's been such a stud and such an awesome ambassador for the sport. I imagine he'll stay involved in swimming like he's done with various events already. It'll be interesting to see what he does with his life from here. He's always seemed like a class act.
