NAIA coming to Lawrence

Lawrence’s Indoor Aquatic Center will be the site of the 2003 and 2004 NAIA swim championships.

Lawrence Sports Corporation will serve as host. Former Kansas University swim coach Gary Kempf will be meet director.

The 2003 meet is scheduled for March 5-8 and the 2004 meet from March 3-6.

“This event not only benefits Lawrence with approximately 700 hotel room nights, but it also showcases our community to hundreds of people from across the United States,” said Troy Roberts, executive director of LSC.

This year’s NAIA meet was conducted in Vancouver, British Columbia.
