Though she didn\u2019t swim as fast at her debut NCAA championships, she did help the Bears win the women\u2019s national title.<\/p>\n<p>She followed that up with a ninth-place finish in the 400 freestyle at the world championships, just missing the final by four tenths of a second. After the meet, she decided to <a href=http:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/cierra-runge-taking-redshirt-year-to-focus-on-olympic-trials\/target=_blank>take a redshirt year<\/a> to train with the likes of <strong>Allison Schmitt<\/strong> and <strong>Michael Phelps<\/strong> in Tempe with a goal of making the U.S. Olympic team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy time at the University of California-Berkeley was valuable,\u201d Runge said. \u201cI learned a great deal about what is important to me and made friends that I&#8217;ll have for life.

Runge will help greatly in freestyle relays, and will be a definite point scorer in the 200 and 500 freestyles. Whether Runge moves down to the 100 free or remains with the 1650 free for collegiate swimming is yet to be decided.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m excited to make a difference in the rising Badger program,\u201d said Runge. \u201cWith a top 25 academic ranking in the world and the women&#8217;s swimming and diving program consistently in the top 15, Wisconsin can provide me the elite overall experience I am looking for. The Badgers have a strong program led by Coach Whitney Hite and I am thrilled to return to Chris Collier, Distance Coach at UW, who was my coach prior to my time with Bob
