[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He got poached by Wisconsin bc he trained Ledecky at Prep[/quote] I believe Yuri coached the younger group at the Prep site, so he coached Ledecky before her first Olympics. Gemmell definitely claimed to coach her as well. (https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/11/sports/swimming-katie-ledecky-coach-bruce-gemmell.html) His son, Andrew Gemmell was also an Olympian and a distance freestyle swimmer. [/quote] Yuri was her first coach, that got her to her first Olympics. After Katie's first Olympics, Yuri went on to coach the men's team at Cal. When Yuri left, Bruce Gemmell was brought in, specifically to coach Katie. He got her to her second Olympics. And I wouldn't call NCAP a centrally run team, in fact far from it. Many of the sites are privately owned, very much like a franchise.[/quote] Privately owned? They are all run by one CEO- Tom Ugast. He hires all the coaches for all locations[/quote]
