Dave has been a long time Shadow Seals supporter, officiating at our annual meet for over the past 15 years and financially through contributions to our Swim-a-thon since 2007.
Ken Breiding and Dave Coddington, our amazing Shadow Seals officials, who work at the annual swim meet that Shadow Seals Swimming hosts every year, were inducted into the PNS Hall of Fame in December 2012.
They have supported our swimming program for at least the past thirteen years both on and off the deck. The following can be found on the PNS website:
