SK168 Erin Gemmell

American Record holder Erin "Egg" Gemmell sits down with Social Kick to take us through her experiences with college recruiting and her exciting first year as a Texas Longhorn. (Yes, Erin leaves her swim cap on for long periods of time and her friends say she looks like an egg.)

Erin candidly discusses the areas she's working on to elevate her short course yards swimming and provides valuable insights into the team training dynamics with coaches Carol and Mitch in Austin.

As the Big 12 Swimming Championships, NCAA Swimming Championships, and the US Olympic Trials loom ahead, Erin shares her goals for the season and offers a glimpse into her mindset going into such a big year.

Finally, as a Croc wearing enthusiast, we think Erin should challenge Olympic Gold Medalist LIlly King to a "who wore it better?" battle. We'll see if we can arrange that.
