IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING HOGAN RENOVATION

Update — April 29, 2009

Due to circumstances created by the on-going construction in the Hogan Center, the pool will be closed for an indeterminate period of time this summer.

We are working with our contractors to have the pool operational as soon as possible, but it may be necessary to have the pool unavailable this summer instead of the summer of 2010. More information will be forthcoming as soon as it is known.

Chris Hamstra

Coach Hamstra graduated from Hope College in 2004 with a B.A. in Accounting. During his time at Hope, Hamstra was a four year student-athlete, received All-MIAA honors and was also named to the All-American team. Hamstra was also a member of MIAA Championship teams and brings that winning attitude and work ethic to his new position.

After graduation, Hamstra served as an assistant coach for Hope’s Swimming and Diving Program under Dr. John Patnott. Hamstra credits Dr. Patnott with helping him to understand the science of swimming and also the importance of season long work out plans. “As an assistant in his program, I was given the freedom to implement my own workouts into the system, providing me with insight into what it takes to develop season long plans.”
