 Swimmer
Derick Roe Chooses Eastern Michigan. Sidney High School
senior Derick Roe has decided to continue his educational and swimming
career at Eastern Michigan University. Derick, two time State Qualifier,
wasn't sure how his senior year was going to end up a couple months
ago. After making it through the qualifying rounds of the Sectional
Meet with an intense ear infection festering, his doctor kept him
out of the water the whole next week leaving to doubt whether Derick
would be able to swim in the District Meet. With a whole week out
of the water Derick was finally released to swim the day of the District
Meet. Derick went on to qualify for the State and eventually place
3rd in the 50 Freestyle and 4th in the 100 freestyle at the State
Meet in Canton this past March. The Greater Western Ohio Conference,
which had 5 member schools finish in the top 30, selected Derick as
the 2005 GWOC Male Swimmer of the Year. Congratualtions Derick and
Good Luck at Eastern Michigan! Pack your ear plugs! |
