Ohio State Steals Penn State’s Swimming Coach

Posted April 29, 2008 at 5:15 pm by Suz in Reppin' For Ohio

The Ohio State UniversityI had another dentist appoint today. You know what that meant, right? Yup. More swim chat with my hygienist.

We talked about NCAAs and how the OSU women put together a Top 15 finish with only diving points. Then we talked about how the women’s head coach had been let go. No NCAA swimming points from a program like Ohio State was unacceptable.

After I returned home, I went to the Ohio State athletic website to see if there were any updates on the coaching search and sure enough there was. The new OSU women’s swim coach is Bill Dorenkott, who has coached the Penn State Nittany Lion women for 10 years and the men for 7.

Departing coach Jeanne Fleck, who was at the helm of the program for 9 years, has taken the head coaching job at Fresno State.

Here’s to hoping the new hire ushers in an era of change for the lady Buckeyes. Lord knows they could use it!

      I wish my dentists talked about swimming instead of ranching or steer wrestling. *aaron face*

      It’s quite pleasant, really. I now look forward to trips to the dentist. I used to dread them!

      Well, that’s good! Maybe all dentists and doctors should take an intrest in what the patients like and strike up a conversation? Actually….I can think of four doctors (and visits) that this could be awkward in….
