MILLIGAN COLLEGE, TN (May 16, 2007) --- Milligan College head swim coach Ron Goehring has added four more swimmers to the school’s first intercollegiate team that will start competing this fall.

Science Hill High School’s Taylor Duran and Darcee Kubisiak, Knoxville’s Anna Goss and Damien Chambers from Asheville, N.C. all signed with the Milligan swim program.

Duran and Kubisiak were both captains at Science Hill. Duran will compete in sprints and breaststroke events. He recorded times of 23.65 and 51.70 in the 50 and 100 yd freestyle events. In the 100 yard breaststroke, his best time is 1:11.87.

While at Science Hill, the duo was coached by Chris Coraggio.

Goss competed with the Knoxville Swim Club and coach Adam Engle. She will compete in the freestyle sprints at Milligan. She will graduate from Berean Christian High School.

Chambers, from Asheville High School, will swim distance freestyle events, 500, 1,000 and 1,500 yards, while at Milligan. He was coached by Kemp and Ruth Battle.

“I am excited to sign four quality swimmers from the region, including two from Science Hill,” said Goehring. “These four swimmers are going to help start a new chapter in the history of swimming at Milligan.”

The announcement of the newly formed Milligan swimming team took place on January 24 at a media event inside the Steve Lacy Fieldhouse. Milligan formerly had a swimming club from 1977 to 1986 and competed against various club and intercollegiate squads.
