Olympian Swimmers in Chesterfield

10:21 PM Fri, Feb 06, 2009 |

I had the chance to meet US olympians Josh Davis and Matt Grevers in Chesterfield. Both were conducting a swimming clinic at Parkway Central, and we were there because both men are friends of Michael Phelps. To their credit they admitted their friend made a mistake and they offered no excuses for him.
Davis is perhaps the the most successful American swimmer in the late 90's. He won three gold medals in Atlanta, and two silver in Sydney. He's also a motivational speaker and author and he seemed to have alot of fun teaching the kids.
Grevers took the gold along with Phelps in China in the 400m medley relay and silver in the 100m backstroke.
David will be back in the area on March 8 conducting another swim clinic at the Bridgeton Swim Club.
