McKnight and Diane Ferguson (née Baker) competed in numerous events including the British Empire & Commonwealth Games where it was also a demonstration sport. The duet won the Ontario Duet and Canadian Duet Championships in 1954. Originally coached by Jimmy Bishop at the Granite Club in Toronto, they moved to the Lakeshore Swimming Club after Bishop's death in 1952. She married John Holden a month after winning the bronze medal, and retired shortly thereafter to raise a family in Toronto and Caledon, Ontario area. Beverly is also the grandmother of Jake Holden, Canadian Olympic Boardercross team member and Canadian Jr. Champion in both Boardercross and Judo. They were both inducted to the Caledon Walk of Fame October 3, 2015.[2][3][4][5] References1. ^{{cite web|last1=Marr|first1=Danielle|title=First Canadian synchro medal winners at Pan Ams in 1955 see Canadian TO2015 duet team win gold {{!}} CaledonEnterprise.com|url=https://www.caledonenterprise.com/pan-am-games-story/5737250-first-canadian-synchro-medal-winners-at-pan-ams-in-1955-see-canadian-to2015-duet-team-win-gold/|website=CaledonEnterprise.com|accessdate=30 May 2017|language=en-CA|date=20 July 2015}} {{DEFAULTSORT:McKnight, Beverley}}{{Canada-swimming-bio-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|author= |url=http://www.therecord.com/pan-am-games-story/5631090-pan-am-memories-fresh-for-athlete-six-decades-later/ |title=Pan Am memories fresh for athlete six decades later |publisher=Therecord.com |date=2015-05-15 |accessdate=2015-07-16}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gbrathletics.com/sport/swimpag.htm |title=Pan American Games - Swimming and Diving |publisher=Gbrathletics.com |date= |accessdate=2015-07-16}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://books.google.ca/books?id=o-dD3p8eTYUC&pg=PA244&lpg=PA244&dq=beverly+mcknight+pan+am&source=bl&ots=Tui8EVDMTU&sig=B9S1OAFAospTNp01XJ68NaGxADg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CC4Q6AEwA2oVChMI7_OS0NrgxgIVirYeCh1Fogig#v=onepage&q=beverly%20mcknight%20pan%20am&f=false |title=Synchronized Swimming: An American History - Dawn Pawson Bean |publisher=Books.google.ca |date= |accessdate=2015-07-16}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://olympic.ca/team-canada/jake-holden/|title=Jake Holden|work=Official Canadian Olympic Team Website - Team Canada - 2014 Winter Olympics}} 6 : Living people|Canadian synchronized swimmers|Year of birth missing (living people)|Pan American Games medalists in synchronized swimming|Pan American Games bronze medalists for Canada|Competitors at the 1955 Pan American Games |
