CONGRATULATIONS MARIN! Collins Hill Swimming and Diving Marin Morrison (Class of 2008) She is going to Beijing!   Marin will represent the USA as a member of the 2008 Paralympic Swim Team in China this September. Quick recap on Marin.  After our state championship meet her freshman year at Collins Hill she was diagnosed with brain cancer.  With her times she was in reach of going to the Olympic trials and had a good shot at going to the games.  Unfortunately a second surgery left her with paralysis. The family moved to Seattle after her sophomore year.  She joined the high school swim team competing with one arm and one leg.  visit http://www.marinlove.com/    for more information.   This is from her mom: We gathered with other swimmers and supporters this morning at the Aquatics Center in Minneapolis where the team announcement was made. When Marin's name was announced, we were all amazed and overjoyed while Marin was absolutely thrilled. She walked up to the front of the room to take her place among her USA teammates and was beaming with a smile that will never fade. Along with coach Andy, and coach Kiko who is also US Team coach, we all had tears in our eyes as we witnessed Marin realize her dream of making it to the 2008 games. She stated that as her goal, even after she was diagnosed with brain cancer, and even when she was stricken with paralysis after surgery. And against some pretty incredible odds, Marin has done it. We're obviously so very proud and happy for her, and today, frankly, we're a bit blown away.
