Dick Kimball

Induction:
1985

Dick Kimball is considered one of the greatest diving coaches of all-time. Kimball was a three-time All-America diver at Michigan before beginning his illustrious coaching career. He became the first Wolverine in 20 years to capture a NCAA Diving championship when he won both the one- and three-meter boards in 1957. He also won the world professional championship in 1963. While at U-M, Kimball also earned three letters in gymnastics. Kimball was a member of the U.S. Olympic diving staff for five Olympics and along the way he coached nine divers to Olympic medals and five divers to NCAA national championships. He was also named the 1984 NCAA Men's and Women's Diving Coach of the Year. Kimball is also enshrined in the International Swimming Hall of Fame.
