“I am beyond excited to announce my verbal commitment to further my academic and athletic career at UCLA! This is a dream come true and I am so thankful for my family, coaches, teammates and friends who helped me get here. Go Bruins!!”

A talented sprinter, Cash is a U.S. Open qualifier and does her club swimming with Long Island Aquatic Club.

Her best times include:

  • 50 free – 23.13

  • 50 fly – 25.15
  • 100 fly – 54.46

Also competing for Sacred Heart Academy, Cash is a six-time New York Federation Championship finalist. The two-time USA Swimming Scholastic All-American earned silver in the 50 free and bronze in the 100 free as a junior while taking fifth and fourth, respectively, in those events during her sophomore season.
