Was Keir a horse trainer in a former life?

Lifetime ban seems appropriate.

administration of that prohibited substance to another athlete without their knowledge

Coach giving Ligandrol to their athlete?

it reads more like an athlete at the US swimming national championship tested positive & plead ignorance, then their coach took the fall (and was in possession of the better-than-steroids drugs.

After the other athlete tested positive for LGD-4033 (Ligandrol) as the result of a urine sample collected in competition at the Swimming US Open Championships, Pearson, 54, admitted to purchasing, using, and administering a product containing LGD-4033

That swimmer is likely his daughter who was recruited to stanford last year and is an Olympic prospect. $h!t never ends. Wonder how many of her other coaches are involved?

The 18-year-old began to take an iron supplement but the changes didn’t stop there. In December, she started training with the Conqueror Weightlifting Club out of Beckman High. Pearson also switched to the distance training group at the SOCAL club under Coach Stephen Pickell, an Olympic silver medalist for Canada.

And in late February, she unleashed a new and improved version of herself at a Speedo sectional in Carlsbad.

She won five of her six events, set personal-best times in all six of her events and blazed SOCAL team records in the 50-yard freestyle (22.50 seconds), 100 free (48.92) and 200 backstroke (1:54.83).
Her other lifetime-best times came in the 100 butterfly (52.51), 200 individual medley (1:57.51) and 200 free (1:45.85).
Pearson’s time in the 50 free was faster than the 2013 Orange County record of Lindsey Engel (22.53), a former Crean Lutheran sprinter who also went onto to Stanford.
...
Pearson plans to use the additional time to get even faster. While she can’t train in a pool, she is running and lifting weights at home while also maintaining her 4.6 grade-point average with on-line studies. She also has been working out on a rowing machine in her garage. Her father Keir was an Olympic rower for the United States in 1992.

Assuming the testing was probably done at the 2020 US Championships in November
