Day 81 of Bob’s retirement and he hasn’t been able to get rid of me yet! For today’s guest we have:

UMass Women’s Swimming Coach - Bob Newcomb
Head Swim Coach 1985-2020

We welcome the star of the show, Bob! He was so touched by the response of the podcast, he wanted to share some of his favorite memories as our coach. We include a lighting round of some true or false items, so Bob goes way back to find some truths and debunk the false ones. I learned so much about Bob and the team- old traditions, new traditions that this show was an honor for me to do. It is the work I am more proud of. I truly am so thankful to be a part of the UMass swimming family and all because Bob decided to let a  red headed Californian who loved to swim onto the team. Sending huge thank you’s from the bottom of my heart for your support of the podcast. If you participated, listened, shared about the pod, I am so grateful for your contributions. Get this pandemic done, we got a retirement party to get to!
