The Stanford women’s swim team looks to repeat it\u2019s championship run at NCAAs, led by both the veterans and rookies alike.<\/p>\n

On paper, and as seen at the Pac-12 Championships, Stanford appears to be the favorite, but as senior, Leah Stevens<\/strong> said, \u201cWe\u2019re not exactly focused on winning per say, just putting together the best possible meet that we can as a team by just being the best possible versions of ourselves, and putting together the best possible races.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lead by seniors, Kim Williams<\/strong>, Stevens, and Ella Eastin<\/strong>, the Stanford team is focusing on assembling the strongest NCAA team in the country. Stanford coach Greg Meehan<\/strong> is counting on, in part, his \u201cthree incredible leaders.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After winning the Pac-12 title, Stevens is excited to head into the mile at NCAAs with fellow teammates Morgan Tankersley<\/strong> and Megan Byrnes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’ve put in a lot of work together and I think that we’ve all really pushed each other this year, so I\u2019m really excited to see what we can do as a group later this month,\u201d Stevens said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While the Stanford seniors are helping lead their team, they\u2019re counting on the underclassmen to add some much needed depth to their team.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s always a little nerve racking going to such a big meet with so many freshman and sophomores, but I\u2019m really proud of the progress that they\u2019ve made,\u201d Meehan said.\u00a0<\/span>\u201cWe\u2019re pretty reliant on our freshman and sophomores. Having only three seniors gives this year\u2019s team a very different feel. I appreciate how the freshman have taken some big steps this year in terms of their maturity within swimming and how they look at the sport. Our seniors and captains have really helped them through that process.\u201d<\/p>\n

Freshman Taylor Ruck<\/strong> has looked up to the veterans as she adjusted to college swimming, and loves being able to race them.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing able to race the upperclassmen has really helped me to get to where I\u2019m at this season,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Ruck is having the time of her life swimming for Stanford and is thrilled to go into her first NCAAs.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so excited to see how the relays do, sharing the experience again with my teammates is just going to be so exciting, and at the National level,\u201c she said. \u201cI\u2019m excited to see what happens.\u201c<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked about how Stanford was going to fend off the Cal team, particularly their stand out relays, Meehan said that he is working hard to fill the 13 of 20 relay spots open from last year that were vacated by graduating seniors or swimmers turning professional.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not trying to do what we did last year, we\u2019re just trying to be the best version of this particular team, and wherever that get us in terms of relays, we\u2019re going to fight for it,\u201d he said.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to relays, Meehan is looking forward to his swimmers triumphing in their individual races and to swim even faster than they did at the Pac-12 Championships. A couple of stand-out swims that he hopes will go above and beyond are Grace Zhao<\/strong> in the 200 breast and Eastin in the 200 backstroke.<\/p>\n
