With her induction she became that Hall of Fame&#8217;s youngest inductee ever (and first Team USA swimmer) and placing her among honorees in that Hall including such luminaries as <strong>Harriet Tubman, Rachel Carson, Billie Holiday, Clara Barton, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, Eunice Kennedy Shriver<\/strong>, and <strong>Sen. Barbara Mikulski.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Maryland Hall of Fame was established in 1985 by the Maryland Commission For Women and the Women Legislators of Maryland to honor women in the state who have made significant and lasting contributions to the arts, athletics, business, education, government, the humanities, human rights, law, medicine, philanthropy or science. Honorees are selected by an independent committee each year and are inducted in March during Women&#8217;s History Month. The Hall is housed at the Maryland Women&#8217;s Heritage Center in Baltimore.<\/p>\n<p>Ledecky was unable to attend the induction ceremony as she was participating at the NCAA Division 1 Women&#8217;s Swimming and Diving Championships in Indianapolis from March 15-18. Fittingly, on the night of the ceremony, Ledecky won the 500 Y Free event at the NCAA meet, breaking the American Record by 1.1 seconds. It was one of five event victories for Ledecky at the NCAA meet (3 individual and 2 relays), and one of several overall NCAA and NCAA Championship meet records for Ledecky and her team as Stanford&#8211;guided by fifth-year Head Coach <strong>Greg Meehan<\/strong> and Associate Head Coach <strong>Tracy Slusser<\/strong>&#8211;won its first NCAA Championship since 1998.<\/p>\n<p>In lieu of attending the ceremony, Ledecky issued a statement thanking the Hall of Fame&#8217;s sponsors and those who have helped her along the way. &#8220;I have to thank my parents for having the great sense to raise my brother and me in the wonderful State of Maryland,&#8221; said Ledecky, who went on also to thank, among others, her schools and school teachers at Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart and Little Flower School in Bethesda, Maryland; all of her current and former classmates and teammates; USA Swimming and the U.S. Olympic Committee; her club and Olympic swim coaches <strong>Bruce Gemmell<\/strong> and <strong>Yuri Suguiyama<\/strong>; <strong>Tom Ugast<\/strong> and former Nation&#8217;s Capital swim club coaches <strong>Carolyn Kaucher<\/strong> and <strong>Nicole Gamard<\/strong>; the Palisades Swim Club; and Stanford University and its coaches Meehan and Slusser.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the induction ceremony, Ledecky received a &#8220;Governor&#8217;s Citation&#8221; from Maryland Governor <strong>Lawrence J. Hogan, Jr.<\/strong> and presented by Maryland First Lady <strong>Yumi Hogan,<\/strong> which reads in part: &#8220;In recognition of your induction into the Maryland Women&#8217;s Hall of Fame&#8230;with best wishes and sincere congratulations as you are honored for your unique and lasting contributions to our state; and as the people of Maryland join together in expressing our deep appreciation, great respect, and admiration for your inspiring leadership and educated service for the benefit of all women.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ledecky is a five-time Olympic gold medalist who made her Olympic debut in London in 2012 as the youngest member of the entire Team USA athlete delegation, winning the 800 Meter Freestyle race in American Record time. She has broken 13 World Records and 30 American Records in her swimming career, which includes 19 international gold medals for Team USA. She was the most decorated female athlete at the 2016 Rio Olympics, winning four gold and one silver medal as she became the first woman since <strong>Debbie Meyer<\/strong> (1968) to sweep the 200-400-800 Meter freestyle races.<\/p>\n<p>The two-time USOC Athlete of the Year and four-time USA Swimming Athlete of the Year completed a similar sweep for Stanford this week at the NCAA Championships, becoming the first woman since University of Florida&#8217;s <strong>Tami Bruce<\/strong> in 1988 to win the 200-500-1650 Y Free events at a single NCAA Div. 1 Championship meet, and becoming the first Stanford swimmer since Olympic Gold medalist <strong>Misty Hyman<\/strong> in 1998 to win any three NCAA individual events at the same NCAA Championship meet.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Ledecky had one of the finest seasons ever posted by an NCAA swimmer, breaking 9 American Records and 12 NCAA records across four different individual events and relays, including new American Records in three events at the NCAA Championships, along with four NCAA and NCAA Championship meet records, and the most event victories (5) by any swimmer in the 2017 NCAA Championship meet. Ledecky broke the NCAA meet record in the 1650 Y Free by 20 seconds, and also broke 4 American records (2 individual, 2 relays) three weeks earlier at the Pac-12 Conference Championships in Federal Way, WA, also won by Stanford, which posted an undefeated 8-0 mark in dual meet competition this season.<\/p>\n<p>Ledecky&#8217;s next competition is scheduled to be on April 13-15, 2017 at the Arena Pro Swim Series at the Skyline Aquatics Center in Mesa, AZ.<\/p>\n<p><em>Press release courtesy of Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Team USA swimmer, Stanford University freshman and two-time Olympian Katie Ledecky, 20, was inducted into the Maryland Women&#8217;s Hall of Fame on March 16 at a ceremony held at the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":242608,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3,7],"tags":[28841,3769,27847,60842,25031,60840,39,327,60841,23046,46856,60558],"class_list":["post-248057","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-usa","tag-bruce-gemmell","tag-debbie-meyer","tag-greg-meehan","tag-harriet-tubman","tag-katie-ledecky","tag-maryland-womens-hall-of-fame","tag-misty-hyman","tag-stanford","tag-stone-ridge","tag-tami-bruce","tag-tom-ugast","tag-tracy-slusser"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
