Thank you to all the coaches, family, and friends that have supported me through this journey. Binghamton is the perfect place for me to pursue both my academic and athletic careers. I can&#8217;t wait to be a part of the team! Go Bearcats!!!&#8221;<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A talented breaststroker, Kuzma does her club swimming with Long Island Express and most recently placed fifth in the 200m breast at Metropolitan Seniors in February. Last summer, she finished 18th in the 100m breast at Metropolitan LCM Seniors before going on to take 14th in that event at Eastern Zone Seniors.<\/p>\n<p>Her best times include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>50 breast &#8211; 30.75<\/li>\n<li>100 breast &#8211; 1:03.57<\/li>\n<li>200 breast &#8211; 2:20.82<\/li>\n<li>200 IM &#8211; 2:05.78<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Also competing for Garden City High School, Kuzma is a five-time New York Federation Championship finalist. She placed fourth in the 100 breast and seventh in 200 IM as a junior while taking 11th and 28th, respectively, in those events during her sophomore season.<\/p>\n<p>Even with just over a year to go before suiting up for the Bearcats, Kuzma will be a valuable asset both individually and on medley relays. She would&#8217;ve scored in the A-final of both breaststroke events as well as the 200 IM at the 2020 America East Championships.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you have a commitment to share, please send a photo and quote via email to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:hs@swimmingworld.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">hs@swimmingworld.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW COMMIT:\u00a0Binghamton University has received an in-state verbal pledge for the fall of 2021 from Garden City, N.Y. native\u00a0Lauren Kuzma, making it their first for the class of 2025.
