HUNTINGTON — As a distance freestyler, Anna Lynch spends a whole lot of time in the water at practice and swim meets for Marshall.
Most of the experience is what the freshman from Oakwood, Ohio, expected. When she was recruited by Coach Bill Tramel, Lynch was told she would be swimming the grueling events of lap-after-lap — the 500, 1,000 and 1,650 yards.
However, she says she didn’t expect to be swimming in her own “Neverland” – and there’s nothing fictional about it.
As the Herd points toward the Conference USA Championships in late February in Atlanta, Lynch already has set school records in the 1,000 and the mile.
