Regarding her commitment, she said:

“I am beyond excited to FINALLY announce my verbal commitment to further both my swimming and academic career at the University of Rhode Island! I would like to thank all of my family, friends and coaches that have not only helped me grow as an athlete but also as a person. I can’t wait to spend the next 4 years at URI! GO RAMS!!”

Brown competes for Hawaii Swimming Club and registered seven top-5 at Hawaii Age Groups in February after placing fourth in the 500 free at Hawaii Seniors in December. In summer 2019, she won the 800m/1500m free combo at Hawaii LCM Age Groups before going on to race three events at Mount Hood Futures.

Her best times include:

200 free – 1:51.98
500 free – 5:06.66
50 back – 27.06
100 back – 57.84
200 back – 2:06.25
200 IM – 2:01.66

Also competing for Maui High School, Brown is a four-time Hawaii State Championship finalist. She grabbed silver in the 200 free and bronze in the 100 back as a sophomore while taking sixth in the 100 free and fourth in the 100 back during her freshman season.

She recorded three top-18 finishes at New England Seniors in December and was the 200m back Eastern Zone champion in 2017.

Tetreault was also selected to attend the New England Swimming Leadership Summit in June 2019 and the Colorado Olympic Training Center in April 2018.

Her best times include:

500 free – 5:01.06
1000 free – 10:17.04

Currently a senior at La Salle Academy, Tetreault is the three-time defending Rhode Island State champion in the 500 freestyler and has been named to the All-State First Team in 2018, 2019, and 2020. She was also named the Outstanding Swimmer at the Bay View Invitational during both her sophomore and junior seasons.
