Chapin is a four time Speedo Sectionals Finalist and over the past five years has been a consistent Niagara LSC Top eight finisher.

Chapin shared,

“I felt at home as soon as I walked on campus, the team and the coaches were so welcoming. I know Canisius will be a place we’re I can grow as a student and a swimmer. Go Griffs!”
