The girls pose after the finish of their Hour of Power relay on November 6th. This is the third year our team has taken part.
A couple of weeks ago, our team, amongst 90 other teams around the country and world did an Hour of Power, a relay in honor of former Carleton College swimmer, Ted Mullin who passed away in 2006 from a rare form of sarcoma.You can read more and donate money to fund this type of research at the University of Chicago on Carleton College's website:

I saw a ton of other colleges and even some high schools did the Hour of Power. That's a cool idea; it's like the swimming version of "Relay for Life" which I've done a few times (for those of you who don't know what that is, it's a 24-hour walk around a track to raise money for cancer research).
How much did you guys raise this year anyway? I can't find any figures for it.
We're looking for swimming and diving content at my site actually, at www.collegefanz.com. It would be nice for non Division I football and basketball sports and athletic programs to be represented, so I'd like to extend an invitation to you to blog over there.
Your program would reach a larger audience there and it's very customizable! You can let all the fanz see pictures of the team and hear about your good work; there's just not enough swimming/diving stuff out there!
Take a look around the site and let me know if you think it fits you, or if you have any questions, at mgleeson@collegefanz.com
I hope to see you guys there; we already have a St. Catherine page waiting for you!
Mike
