I can\u2019t wait for all that\u2019s to come with joining the team!

GO HOOS!&#8221;<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hayes earned bronze this past summer in the 200m IM at the FINA World Championships in Budapest. Her time of 2:08.91 stood as the World Junior Record until it was broken later that summer.<\/p>\n<p>She placed second in the 200m IM as well as fourth in the 400m IM at Phillips 66 Nationals. At Juniors West back in December, she earned gold in both the 100 free and 200 IM. She raced to 10th in the 200m IM at Olympic Trials in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>She does her club swimming with Fox Valley District Riptide and her 200 IM time is the fastest in her class.<\/p>\n<p>Her best times include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>200 IM &#8211; 1:54.09<\/li>\n<li>400 IM &#8211; 4:11.60<\/li>\n<li>50 free &#8211; 22.86<\/li>\n<li>100 free &#8211; 48.34<\/li>\n<li>200 free &#8211; 1:44.13<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Currently a junior at Kaneland High School, Hayes won the 100 free and 200 IM at the 2022 Illinois State Championships.<\/p>\n<p>Hayes is obviously a huge pickup for the Cavaliers, who are the two-time defending national champions. Her best time in the 200 IM would&#8217;ve placed sixth at the 2022 NCAA Championships and she would&#8217;ve scored in the B-final of the 200 free, too.<\/p>\n<p><i>If you have a commitment to share,
