USAFA, Colo. — Head women’s swimming coach Colleen Murphy and head diving coach Stan Curnow announced the addition of 15 swimmers and one diver as part of the class of 2025, Thursday, June 24. The 16-member freshman class arrived at the Academy today to begin in-processing.
“We are so excited to welcome the Class of 2025 to USAFA,” Head Coach Colleen Murphy exclaimed. “Many of these amazing women were unable to visit USAFA due to COVID and committed to us because of their belief in serving their country and being part of something bigger than themselves. They have distinguished themselves in the pool and in the classroom, and we are excited to have them as part of our team.”
“We brought in depth in every stroke and the IM with this recruiting class,” Murphy continued. “They have a wide range of abilities and many of these women will have the opportunity to swim lots of different events due to their versatility in the pool.”
