What They Are Saying
Wingate head women's swimming coach Kirk Sanocki
 
"Lily continues to get faster each year. I think this is a testimony to her work ethic, especially in the spring and summer. Her unsuited swims, especially in her signature event, were her best so far in her college career. Lily is excited about the entire team's performances this year as well."
