Coach Eric S. King was a passionate advocate for health and swimming, excelling as a NCAA Division II and U.S. Masters Swimmer. As a swim coach for over 30 years, he understood the positive impact sports can have and envisioned expanded access to water for all. Tragically, his life was unexpectedly cut short on March 13, 2025. By donating to the Coach Eric “Live for the Swim” Memorial Fund, you will help North Carolinians learn to swim and gain water safety skills and will support scholarships for swimmers from our local communities.
