McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion

McCorkle is the home pool to the Ohio State synchronized swimming team and competition venue for men’s and women’s swimming and diving. McCorkle has earned a reputation for fast water. The Columbus Dispatch article titled “Built for Speed” states that “it’s not one thing that makes this pool fast, but a collection of things – the depth, number and width of lanes, deep gutters, and water inlets at the bottom of the pool – that reduce waves.” Aquatics International magazine stated this about McCorkle:”… a state-of-the-art competition pool loaded with the latest technology sets a university apart from the competition.”
