MILWAUKEE -- University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee head swimming coach Dave Clark added two swimmers to his swimming and diving roster, he announced today.

Arick Severson (Red Wing, Minn./Red Wing) won the Minnesota Class A 100 breaststroke and 200 individual medley in 1999. He was a state finalist in both events in 2000. "Arick is a real find for our program. It's nice to have a state champion in our recruiting class," Clark said. "He will be a very welcome addition."

Jen Kedinger (Fond du Lac, Wis./Goodrich) was a state finalist in the 200 and 500 freestyles in 1998 and 1999. "Jen is a solid student-athlete. She can do any freestyle event from the 100 to the 1650," Clark said. "She will be a major factor in our middle distance and distance freestyle events."
