As part of the Memorial Mustang swimming team and Dad's club AAU team, Patrick contributed to State championships with numerous high school and age group swimming records. Qualified and participated in the 1968 Olympic trials and went on in 1969 to place eighth in the AAU Nationals. That eighth place finish had him listed as having the 9th fastest 200 meter backstroke in the world! Continued swimming on scholarship at the University of Texas in Austin. After a break he discovered Master's swimming and has participated in that since the mid-1980s. "Swimming has been a beautiful part of my entire life and I can now bring that love and enthusiasm to coaching the MAC Master's participants".

Mandi Roden. WSI, LG. I competitively swam in the DFW area for 10 years including starting my prep school's swim program as the first swimmer to swim at TAPPS state meet. I picked swimming back up to get in shape after having my children. I have been a swim instructor at MAC for 6 years and also coach our YAF teams. I am so excited to add coaching Masters to my schedule. I am a 4 time 70.3 Ironman and my entire family competes in triathlon. When I'm not teaching at MAC, you'll find me swimming on my off time. Come join me!
