U.S. to Send Team of 22 to 2023 Para World Swimming Championships<\/strong><\/p>\n

The U.S. on Friday announced a 22-athelte delegation to the 2023 Para World Swimming Championships in Manchester, England.<\/p>\n

The team includes 16 women and six men. Last week\u2019s Para Swimming World Series in Minneapolis<\/a> was used as a selection factor, with the U.S. gleaning 40 medals.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter some incredible performances in Minneapolis, we are very confident in the roster that we\u2019ll be bringing to square off against the world\u2019s best this summer,\u201d Erin Popovich<\/strong>, director of U.S. Paralympics Swimming, said in a press release<\/a>. \u201cAlongside our veteran athletes who have competed at this level before, we had some newcomers step up and earn spots on their first world championships team. We can\u2019t wait to see them race in Manchester.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the team is Jessica Long<\/strong>, who will look to add to her voluminous history at Worlds. Long has won 52 career Worlds medals, including 35 goals. She is a 29-time Paralympic medalist.<\/p>\n

McKenzie Coan<\/strong> has 16 career Worlds medals, including three golds and a relay silver from last year\u2019s Worlds in Madeira, Portugal. Leanne Smith<\/strong> went 7-for-7 in her events in Madeira<\/a> and is a 10-time World champion.<\/p>\n

Veterans Hannah Aspden, Mikaela Jenkins, Elizabeth Marks<\/strong> and Morgan Stickney<\/strong> are among the mainstays for a deep American women\u2019s team. Lizzi Smith, Colleen Young, Julia Gaffney<\/strong> and Ahalya Lettenberger<\/strong> also travel to Manchester with Paralympic medals to their names. (Not among the returnees from Worlds last year is Anastasia Pagonis,<\/strong> who continues to work back from an injury<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Matthew Torres<\/strong> and Jamal Hill<\/strong> lead a comparatively thinner men\u2019s team. The each earned two silver medals in Madeira in their Worlds debuts. Lawrence Sapp<\/strong> and Morgan Ray<\/strong> also return to Worlds.<\/p>\n

The meet will begin on July 31.<\/p>\n
