Youngstown -- Sarah Porchak, a
nationally ranked Canadian swimmer,
has signed a letter of intent to
continue her athletic and academic
careers at Youngstown State, Head
Coach Matt Anderson announced.
Porchak, a native of Tillsonburg, Ontario, will compete in
the backstroke and the butterfly for
the Penguins beginning in the
2004-05 season.
Porchak was nationally ranked as a junior in the 50-meter
