WASHINGTON Ill -- Some swimmers in Washington, Illinois got a chance to train with the best today.

It was all part of the Break-Out Swim Clinic put on by Mutual of Omaha.

Following a 4 hour stroke-technique clinic, kids got to meet Olympic Gold Medalist Matt Grevers and National Champion swimmer Annie Chandler.

But the young swimmers say getting help from their role models was the best part.

"I was like freaking out when I found out I was going to meet him. I was like oh my god I'm going to get to meet one of my idols," said swimmer, Ashleigh Forrest.

"The way you can captivate a young crowd. You know they are usually rambuxious, loud and don't listen to people but when you talk and you hear that silence and that pin drop moment. It's a pretty awesome feeling to have that kind of control over such a young crowd," said Olympic swimmer, Matt Grevers.

The Mutual of Omaha Breakout Swim Clinic visits more than 70 U.S. cities each year.
