Team USA Swimmer David Curtiss Announces Retirement, Joins Police Force

Former U.S. National Team member David Curtiss has announced his retirement from competitive swimming and will begin his next chapter as a police officer.

“Time for a little transparency — my time in the sport of swimming has come to an end,” David Curtiss posted on Instagram. “It’s been over for a while now, as I’ve been quietly chasing another lifelong dream: a career in public service. Today marks day one of serving the Town of Cary, and I couldn’t be more proud. Since I was a kid, I’ve dreamed of working with people — all kinds of people — and being a positive force in the community. After the last Olympic Trials, I knew my spark for swimming had faded… but a new one had ignited.”

“I’m incredibly proud of what I accomplished in the pool. The friends I made, the teams I represented, and the honor of wearing the red, white, and blue for Team USA — I’ll carry that forever,” David Curtiss wrote. “Thank you to Lila for trusting me. To Speedo and TYR for the opportunity to represent your brands. And thank you to everyone who believed in me along the way. This isn’t goodbye — just a new chapter. Here’s to the next journey. From swimmer to swammer. “
