Opinion: Swimming and diving team deserves attention

Not only do the swimmers work out hard, they do so with very little appreciation from the Tulane community. A portion of the Tulane community is unaware of the fact that we even have a swim team.

Though the swimmers have a few home meets at Reily throughout the year, they rarely have a significant turnout. While the football, baseball and basketball teams enjoy larger crowds and busier stadiums, the swim team seeks success in relative silence.

Being a member of the Tulane swim team is just as rigorous as any other athletic team on campus. Their practices are intense and to be on the team requires drive, commitment and passion.
