Scott Rabalais – Scott was a tireless advocate for the fitness swimmer. He created the February Fitness Challenge, which later evolved into Go The Distance, the ultimate USMS fitness event. As a coach, Scott truly inspired his swimmers. When he moved to Savannah, Georgia and began coaching the Savannah Masters, the club quickly grew from a handful of swimmers to over 100. Scott served on the USMS Executive Committee for four years and advocated for fitness events during his tenure.
