EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Every year the swimming and diving team cuts their winter break short to travel south with the sole purpose to improve themselves. The training sessions of this trip are often the most difficult of the season.

However, such a journey doesn't come cheap; travel, food, and lodging are all required expenses for each athlete, and often reaches a hefty price tag.

Former Aces swimmer Ady Sekely Shea '10 and her husband Brian have pledged $500 per year for ten years toward the training trip expenses of one Evansville swimmer or diver in the Ady Shea Award of Excellence in Swimming and Diving.
