Mia Verwoest, finished this weekend with a perfect 60/60 points at the Big 8 Championships where she was awarded "Big 8 Swimmer of the Year", in addition she set 2 new school records- the women's 50 Back / 100 Back.  She is entered into the State Swim Championships 2024 as top 8 in all of her 3 individual events.  The Big 8 Conference for Women's Swim is considered the most competitive of all conferences and to be swimmer of the year as a freshman is a unique honor.

Rachel Choi- Women's Diving

Rachel earned "Big 8 Diver of the Year".  Rachel set the new school record for both the Women's 1 & 3 M boards.  Rachel has been a fabulous addition to the women's swim & dive team as she has brought a happy, mature and focused approach to practice.  She is consistent and true to herself.  She is a confident competitor and a class act to all she encounters.  She has been a joy for everyone and is a great example of a job well done!
