Kobe will lead the team for what could be the final time, as he will retire from ECU and coaching after 37 years. This is also the last time the senior swimmers and divers will be competing at the AAC Championships, and Kobe has had to help focus his group.
“I’m not thinking about how this will be the last time I will be coaching the swim team,” Kobe said. “I am thinking about the bigger picture and about the team performing well this upcoming week. After it’s all said and done, I will sit back and then reflect on my experience at ECU.
