The late Julian “Tex” Robertson of Sweetwater was a member of the U.S. Olympic water polo team that won a bronze medal at the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles. He then founded the swim program at the University of Texas, where he trained 15 all-Americans, numerous Olympians and won 13 Southwest Conference championships. Robertson also created Camp Longhorn, a summer youth camp with multiple locations in central Texas that is still in operation today.
