PHOENIX, Arizona, October 4. BOTH the Rutgers swimming and diving team and the James Madison swimming and diving team have recently used the Internet in an attempt to save their men’s teams from facing the axe after this season.
Chris Feaster, JMU’s men’s head coach, has worked with his team to create www.savejmuswimming.com. To help, our readers can visit their web site and click Feedback on the left navigation bar for contact information of people in place that can help save the team.
Additionally, the squad opened up the DDP Swim Team group on Facebook.com, a social networking web site primarily for college and high school students. The group, which stands for Duke Dog Pride, already has more than 4,000 members in less then a week of activity.
Meanwhile, Rutgers’ site (www.saverutgersswimming.org) has plenty of information to help located in the top navigation bar, including a How To Help link. This link contained step-by-step instructions on how to help in the fight to save the Rutgers’ men’s team. It also provides sample letters to the school’s A.D. (Sample Letter) and to the school’s president (Sample Letter).
SwimmingWorldMagazine.com supports both teams as they engage in a fight for their existence. As our readers, please do everything you can to help in these conflicts.
