Just two days into the 2018 FINA World Championships in Hangzhou, China, and the Trojans have already amassed an impressive medal count, led by Hungary's Katinka Hosszu with two golds and a silver, a pair of relay medals for Russia's Vladimir Morozov and another relay medal for American Kendyl Stewart.

Former USC Swimming Coach Don LaMont, who guided the Trojan women's team for 10 years following a highly successful club coaching career and prior to a long stint of service for the university, died last week, months after suffering a severe stroke. He was 82.

USC Coach Dave Salo will serve as the American men's head coach and will be joined by a host of former Trojan greats – All-Americans, Olympians and NCAA champions including Katinka Hosszu, Haley Anderson and Vladimir Morozov – as they represent their respective countries beginning Tuesday morning in Hangzhou, China (Monday afternoon local time) at the 2018 FINA World Championships (25m).

Stanford's Paul A. Violich Director of Women's Swimming Greg Meehan was named head coach for the 2020 U.S. Olympic Women's Swimming team on Monday.

Senior Patrick Mulcare, junior Louise Hansson and sophomore Maggie Aroesty were all victorious to lead the Trojans on the final night of the Texas Hall of Fame Invitational on Saturday (Dec. 1) in Austin.
