Coach Matt Liddy

 
It is with great regret what we have experienced this past week. As several people know by now, Coach Matt Liddy passed away on Monday. Coach Liddy grew up in Dayton, graduated from Chaminade-Julienne High School, coach the Dayton Northwest YMCA and then moved on to coach at Wright State University. He also coached our very own Coach Eric and Coach Tony at Wright State University and then refered Coach Eric to the South YMCA-KEY Swimming program to start his coaching career.

 

Not only was he a very good coach, Liddy was a great person. He helped mold Eric and Tony into the people they are today. Below is a link to Wright State University's article about him.

Please keep Coach Liddy's family in your thought during this time.
