Senior Chris Clemons plays a very big role on the men’s swim team.

On Christmas day, Clemons had a snowboarding accident in Colorado. Clemons now has a grade three separated clavicle, which means he is out for the rest of the season.

Clemons stated that he has had offers from a few Division 1 schools.

“The schools are pretty low but usually swimming does not get much money,” Clemons said. “The injury prevents me from earning more, because if I did better and got faster I would have been offered more money.”

Clemons plans to get back to swimming as soon as he is finished with physical therapy.

“I’m going to take it step-by-step and eventually get back to it.”
