Swanson, 77, is a retired educator and hockey coach from Coventry, R.I. He is president of the Rhode Island Trials Club and led the U.S. contingent to the Manx International Classic Trial on the Isle of Man in 2018 and 2019. He was the oldest man to compete in the event both years. Also pictured is Mariano Gomez, winner of the 2019 Carl “Coach” Swanson Award.
