Utah Swimming: Winslow’s contract will not be renewed

Utah will not renew head swimming and diving coach Greg Winslow’s contract, the Athletics Department announced Monday. Winslow was suspended Feb. 28 following allegations that he sexually abused a former swimmer when she was 15 years old.
No charges have been filed against Winslow.
“We decided it is in the best interest of our current student-athletes, future recruits and the general well-being of our swimming and diving program to announce today that we will not be renewing Greg Winslow’s contract after this season,” said athletic director Chris Hill in a statement. “Our swimming and diving program is an important part of our athletic department, and we are invested in its future. We will begin a search for a new coach immediately.”
Richard Marschner was named the interim director of the program and will continue to serve as diving coach. Winslow will remain on paid administrative leave until further notice.
The decision not to renew Winslow’s contract follows the release of an Arizona State police report detailing the allegations. According to the report, which was obtained by Yahoo! Sports, the alleged abuse began in 2005 when the alleged victim was a member of Winslow’s Sun Devil Aquatics club. Winslow was an assistant at Arizona State at the time. The victim also reportedly attempted suicide in 2012.
The Daily Utah Chronicle is in the process of acquiring the report.
Most notably, Yahoo! archives detail a recorded phone call between the alleged victim and Winslow.
Police recorded a phone call the alleged victim placed to Winslow on Nov. 28. The alleged victim told Winslow she was attempting to reach closure for what transpired from 2005 through 2007.
In the conversation, Winslow apologized for misleading and kissing the victim.
“What about for rubbing my breasts?” asked the alleged victim.
“I’m sorry for that, too,” Winslow responded.
According to Yahoo!, Winslow told police he only kissed the alleged victim on her swim cap and never fondled her. He said he only apologized to help her with the grieving process.
“Never fondled for sure. A hundred percent for sure never fondled,” Winslow said in the report.
The Sun Devil Aquatics club is not affiliated with Arizona State athletics, but Yahoo! reports the alleged incidents occurred in Arizona State facilities.
The Utah men’s swim team is participating in the Pac-12 Championships in Federal Way, Wash.

    I hardly write comments, however I read a few of the comments on Utah Swimming: Winslow’s contract will
    not be renewed | The Daily Utah Chronicle. I do have a few questions for
    you if it’s allright. Could it be simply me or do a few of the remarks appear like they are left by brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are posting at other places, I’d like to keep up with everything fresh you have to post.
    Could you post a list of all of all your social community pages
    like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    I do not know if it’s just me or if everybody else experiencing problems with your website. It seems like some of the text in your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This may be a problem with my browser because I’ve had this happen before.
    Thanks

    The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this 1. I mean, I know it was my option to read, but I really thought youd have something intriguing to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about some thing which you could fix for those who werent too busy searching for attention.
