Collegiate Club Swimming League announces its second National Championships

Columbus, OH, September 30. The American Swimming Association University League
(ASA U.) is pleased to announce that it will hold the Second Annual ASA U.
National
Swimming Championship on April 22-23, 2006 at the Columbus Bill and Mae McCorkle
Aquatic Pavilion at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, hosted by

In its second year of operation, ASA U. welcomes its returning member-teams,

Washington University Swimming Club, Cougar Swim Club at the University of
Houston

ASA U. also welcomes two new teams to the league, Buckeye Masters Swim Club at
The

Swimming at the University of Virginia. ASA U. expects more clubs to join as
this year's
swim season commences.

ASA U. member-teams gratefully benefit from generous private and corporate
sponsorship
from those who wish to support our efforts to expand opportunities for college
students
who enjoy the sport of swimming.

The American Swimming Association University League is an association of
student-run
swim clubs from colleges and universities across the United States. ASA U., the
first
national collegiate club swimming league, was founded in response to the
elimination of
so many college and university swimming teams across the country. ASA U.
welcomes all
swim clubs affiliated with higher-education institutions and supports them in
their
inception, with hosting meets, as well as offering means of pooling resources,
negotiating
benefits, and setting standards for collegiate clubs. For more information and

effort to expand opportunities for college swimmers, please visit the
