Specifically, keep an eye out for the following 4\u00a0swimmers to watch who all own top 20 times so far this season:<\/p>\n<h1>Emily Medeiros &#8211; Springfield College<\/h1>\n<div id=\"attachment_122018\" style=\"width: 732px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122018\" data-attachment-id=\"122018\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/newmac-swimmer-profile-emily-medeiros\/medeiros_emily3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Medeiros_Emily3.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"722,479\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Medeiros_Emily\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Medeiros_Emily&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Springfield Athletics&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Medeiros_Emily3-700x479.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Medeiros_Emily3.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-122018\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Medeiros_Emily3.jpg\" alt=\"Medeiros_Emily\" width=\"722\" height=\"479\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-122018\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Springfield Athletics<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Medeiros and the Springfield Pride will take on Holy Cross Friday night at 6:00 p.m. Medeiros currently ranks ninth in the 100 breast (1:03.77) and twentieth in the 200 breast (2:20.72). Medeiros is no stranger to being at the top of the rankings in these events, as she finished fourth in the 100 and sixth in the 200 at last year&#8217;s NCAA Championships. Her times from December of this year were just off what she went last season at this point, so expect to see Medeiros claim another pair of All-American titles come March.<\/p>\n<p>This week, the senior will not find any issues winning her signature events, but will be challenged by Holy Cross&#8217; <strong>Maura Mullaney<\/strong> in either the 100 fly, 200 fly or both. The Pride has enough depth to win the breaststrokes without Medeiros, so she may be utilized in the fly events. She is about three tenths faster than Mullaney in the 100 distance, and has plenty of racing experience in this event to take the win. If put in the 200, she will have a much tougher battle against Mullaney&#8217;s 2:10.71. Granted, this is a rested time while Medeiros has posted a 2:15 in a dual meet. Either match-up will be a good one to watch as Medeiros does not give wins away easily.<\/p>\n<h1>Hope Walsh &#8211; Keene State College<\/h1>\n<div id=\"attachment_239360\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-239360\" data-attachment-id=\"239360\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/division-iii-weekly-preview-5-swimmers-to-watch-before-conferences-commence\/hope_walsh_keene\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1600,1067\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Hope_Walsh_Keene\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;3\/16\/2017&lt;br \/&gt;\nHope_Walsh_Keene&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Keene State Swimming&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-239360\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Hope_Walsh_Keene\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene-533x355.jpg 533w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene-280x187.jpg 280w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Hope_Walsh_Keene.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-239360\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Keene State Swimming<\/p><\/div>\n<p>While Walsh may not have the NCAA experience of Medeiros, she will be a force this weekend at Saturday&#8217;s Little East Conference Championships. Walsh already holds the conference record in the 500 freestyle, and will be looking to add the 1,000 freestyle to that list. While she sits just outside the top 20 rankings in this event (21st &#8211; 10:30.78) from her mile split in December, she currently ranks fifteenth in the 1,650 (17:21.95).<\/p>\n<p>While she will have to wait a few more weeks to go after the mile, it will be interesting to see Walsh race a suited 1,000 on it&#8217;s own. It will take a 10:27.89 to match her ranking in the mile, which would set her up well to take a shot at qualifying for this year&#8217;s NCAA Championships. Walsh&#8217;s efforts will help Keene State go after their eleventh-straight Little East Conference title, so expect Walsh to be ready to race.<\/p>\n<h1>Anna Moore &#8211; Albion College<\/h1>\n<div id=\"attachment_239353\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-239353\" data-attachment-id=\"239353\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/division-iii-weekly-preview-5-swimmers-to-watch-before-conferences-commence\/anna_moore_albion_fly\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1244,655\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Anna_Moore_Albion_fly\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Anna_Moore_Albion_fly&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Albion Athletics&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly-1024x539.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-239353\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly-1024x539.jpg\" alt=\"Anna_Moore_Albion_fly\" width=\"1024\" height=\"539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly-1024x539.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly-533x281.jpg 533w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly-280x147.jpg 280w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Anna_Moore_Albion_fly.jpg 1244w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-239353\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Albion Athletics<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Moore and the Albion Britons will take on Olivet at 6:00 p.m. on Friday night. She currently ranks seventeenth in the 100 backstroke (57.24), one of the three events she competed in at last year&#8217;s NCAA Championships as a freshman. This time is already faster than what she swam at NCAAs last year, and is just off her best (56.65) from last season&#8217;s MIAAs. She has consistently raced under 1:00 in dual meets in this event this season.<\/p>\n<p>Moore should not see any stiff competition in the backstroke events this weekend, but if she does swim them she will look to keep improving her 200 back time. Her best so far is 2:10.52, which is just around what she was swimming last year before going 2:03.95 at MIAAs. She will be looking to dip back under the 2:10 mark as her team will most likely take the meet.<\/p>\n<h1>Maddie Kauahi &#8211; Pomona Pitzer Colleges<\/h1>\n<div id=\"attachment_186615\" style=\"width: 647px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-186615\" data-attachment-id=\"186615\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/pomona-pitzer-leads-heading-final-day-sciacs\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"637,387\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"pomona-pitzer-generic-3\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;pomona-pitzer-generic-3 (10\/26)&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Pomona-Pitzer Athletics&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-186615\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3.jpg\" alt=\"pomona-pitzer-generic-3\" width=\"637\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3.jpg 637w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3-533x324.jpg 533w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/pomona-pitzer-generic-3-200x122.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 637px) 100vw, 637px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-186615\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Pomona-Pitzer Athletics<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Kauahi and her team will travel to Claremont Mudd Scripps on Saturday morning for competition at 10:30 a.m. Kauahi is currently twelfth in the 50 free at 23.60.
