Decatur Eyes Olympic Bid as Point Mallard Pool Hopes Rise
Former Florida State coach and Olympian Bill Barton predicts Decatur could become the Southeast swimming and diving capital with a Point Mallard complex. He notes the facility's superiority, eyes an Olympic trials bid next summer, and plans a year round diving camp here with Rhonda Rogers assisting. Barton awaits a five week push to secure Point Mallard as Junior National and Region 3 Diving Championships arrive with 100 to 150 divers.
