Senior Andrew Sansoucie is used to doing sprint races. Saturday’s 2.4-mile open water swim in Innsbrook, Missouri, was anything but.
Sansoucie and the Missouri swimming and diving team participated in a Swim Across America event that raised around $60,000 for cancer research, $10,494 of which came from money raised by the Tigers.
“This is a great team bonding exercise,” Sansoucie said. “It’s great to just get the whole team out here, men’s and women’s team together, doing something for a good cause, having fun, making a little trip out of it, making a day out of it.
