BALTIMORE, Maryland, July 10. IN advance of the star-studded Athens Bulldog Grand Slam this weekend, adidas Swim has announced that three-time Olympic gold medalist Allison Schmitt is #AllIn after signing an agreement with the apparel company.<\/p>\n
Schmitt has had an impactful career in the sport of swimming, with three gold medals, to go with a silver and a bronze, at the 2012 London Olympic Games. She won the 200-meter freestyle individually, and helped Team USA to gold in the 800-meter free relay and 400-meter medley relay. She also took silver in the 400-meter free and bronze in the 400-meter free relay. In 2008, she picked up her first Olympic medal with a bronze as part of the 800-meter free relay for Team USA.<\/p>\n
Schmitt also has won four world titles. She won gold in the 800-meter free relay at the 2011 Shanghai Long Course World Championships, and also picked up three world titles at the 2012 Istanbul Short Course World Championships. She topped the 200-meter free in Istanbul, and help the U.S. to wins in the 400-meter free relay and 800-meter free relay.<\/p>\n
The well-traveled swimmer, who has represented a handful of clubs that include the Ann Arbor Swim Club, Club Wolverine, Athens Bulldog Swim Club and her current North Baltimore Aquatic Club, also had a tremendous NCAA career. She won four NCAA titles in the 200-yard and 500-yard freestyle events as well as helped Georgia to the NCAA title in 2013.<\/p>\n
Although she had a tough international year in 2013, Schmitt has bounced back with a vengeance here in 2014 and is expected to make some significant National Team trips at U.S. Nationals next month.
