Olympian Phelps comes to PSU Sunday
News in Brief

Olympic medallists Michael Phelps, Ian Crocker and Lenny Krayzelburg will be visiting Penn State this Sunday as part of Disney’s 12-city Swim with the Stars tour. The medallists will hold a swim clinic from 3 to 5 p.m. Sunday at McCoy Natatorium, featuring demonstrations, rematches from Athens and mock relay races with local swimmers. Tickets for the clinic are $30, but McCoy Natatorium pool coordinator Jon Larson said he was unsure when tickets would go on sale. “For all the other cities [in the tour], tickets go on sale two hours before the show starts … but I don’t know exactly what is happening with the sales,” Larson said. After the swimming demonstration, Phelps, the first American to win eight Olympic medals, will speak to the public from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in HUB Heritage Hall, answering questions and signing autographs.
