This Ready Room interview on The Morning Swim Show features Haley Scott DeMaria, who battled through adversity after a horrific bus accident killed two of her teammates at Notre Dame University and broke her back, leaving her temporarily paralyzed.

On Jan. 24, 1992, the chartered bus carrying the Notre Dame women’s swim team from a meet at Northwestern University skidded on a patch of ice and turned over in the middle of a heavy snowstorm. Two swimmers were killed, and Scott landed on her spine and crushed three vertebrae.
