NPR Student Podcast Challenge:

S02E060: We Have a Swim Team? (Ashley)

NPR Challenge: We Have a Swim Team? (Ashley)

(This Podcast was submitted as an entry in the 2024 NPR Student Podcast Challenge 5th-8th Grade Competition)

In this podcast, Ashley deals with the hard reality that swimming just doesn’t get the same love as other sports. Regardless of successes, some people either don’t realize that a team exists or don’t even realize it’s a sport that people actually do. Either way, Ashley wants to get to the bottom of this with her fellow swimmers, boys / girls team, her coach and her family who also swims.

This podcast was recorded in Herricks Studios with Michael Heit in the Content Creation Foundations 8th Grade Elective.
