A 2:00.81 200 yard backstroker out of Mauldin High School in Greenville, S.C., 5-8 Danielle Galyer<\/strong> became a difference maker for Lars Jorgensen\u2019s<\/strong> Kentucky Wildcats. By the end of her college career, she had become an Olympic Trials finalist, a two-time USA Swimming national team member, four-time NCAA All-American and Kentucky\u2019s first female aquatic national champion.<\/p>\n

Her first-place 1:49.71 200 back her junior year also helped hoist the Wildcat women to 22nd in the NCAA team standings. She finished fifth in the same event last March as Kentucky improved to 14th.<\/p>\n

\u201cDanielle is really relentless and determined like nobody else, and that\u2019s what set her apart from the pack,\u201d says her Kentucky coach, Lars Jorgensen. \u201cShe\u2019s also very even-keeled. That is one trait that made her as good as she was. Oftentimes, you\u2019ll have an athlete who will have a bad race and then have a bad attitude. She would use a bad race to push herself further.<\/p>\n

\u201cDanielle truly epitomizes what being a student-athlete should be. She worked hard in the weight room, the classroom, in the pool and was a great leader for our team. She was not the most talented athlete I\u2019ve ever coached, but she was far and away the grittiest,\u201d adds Jorgensen.<\/p>\n

Galyer is currently enrolled in law school at the University of Florida with an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship.<\/p>\n
