Our hearts go out to this family. Drowning can happen to great swimmers too, knowledge is power!The death of former NC State swimmer and assistant coach Jack Roney should serve as a wake-up call for the entire swimming community.The UHBP Board of Directors is calling on leaders across competitive swimming and aquatics to examine how underwater hypoxic blackout is taught and what more must be done to protect swimmers.Jack was an accomplished Division I athlete and coach.
