Today's American Swimming Coaches Association talk comes from the 1995 World Clinic in New Orleans. Hall of Fame Coach Nort Thornton discusses the importance of asking better questions and not taking too much for granted in order to find better ways of doing things.


Nort coached at Cal Berkeley from 1974 to his official retirement in 2007 where he won two national titles in back to back years in 1979 and 1980. He also served as a coach for the United States’ 1992 Olympic team which was littered with current and former Cal swimmers.


Don't forget to sign up for the World Clinic this year. September 6th through 9th in Dallas, Texas.
