The Synchronized Swimming Gray team has a busy weekend ahead of them. The team will be traveling to Virginia to compete against the University of Richmond and College of William & Mary. The universities came in 18th and 15th, respectively, at the 2018 U.S. Collegiate National Championships after the preliminary competition.
Recap: Jessica Beck Memorial Competition
The team had an impressive showing at their second home meet of the season that honored Jessica Beck, a former synchronized swimmer who passed away unexpectedly during her senior year at Ohio State. University of Michigan, University of Incarnate World, and Lindenwood University all visited Columbus for an exciting evening of competition.
Six incredible student-athletes were recognized for four years of dedication to the team: Wenjing Deng, Rachel Warren, Alex Meredith-LeRoux, Lane Starrett, Stephanie Thielemann, and Elizabeth Walsh. The seniors performed a self-choreographed routine to say farewell to their home crowd in Columbus. For more information on the Class of 2018 click HERE.
