The first Wyoming swimmer ever to compete in the Olympic games, Scott Usher, is part of the 2011 Class of the University of Wyoming Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame. David Settle and Eric Schmoldt got to talk to Scott on Sportsline Live about why he came to Wyoming, his Olympic experience and what he's been up to since. Listen below.

Usher earned a trip to the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens after placing second in the 200-meter breastroke (2:10.90) at the US Olympic Team Trials, finishing second to a World Record swim by Texas' Brendan Hansen (2:09.04). He still holds the Mountain West Conference record, the Wyoming record, the MWC Championships record and the Corbett Pool record in both the 100- and 100-yard breaststroke events.

The dinner and induction ceremony for the Hall of Fame's 19th class will be Friday, Sept. 2nd at the University of Wyoming Conference Center & Hilton Inn Ballroom in Laramie. Other inductees include: Mike English (Women's Volleyball coach, 1986-90 and 1992-93), Wesley Maiyo (Track, 1974-75, Robert L. Mason (Wrestling, 1949-51), Shauna Smith (Track, 2003-05), Jim Walden (Football, 1958-59), and the 1986-87 "Sweet 16" Men's Basketball Team.
