Amanda Kendall dismissed from the Louisiana State swim team

According to reachforthewall.com, 2009 All-Met swimmer Amanda Kendall has been dismissed from the Louisiana State swim team for violating team rules, specific reasons unknown, and Kendall declining to comment on the rules violation. She has withdrawn from classes at LSUA and returned to her former club coach Peter Ward at George Mason University. LSU’s compliance department has applied for an Olympic-year waiver for Kendall that would allow her to retain her final year of eligibility without establishing a year of residency first.
