In addition to being a very strong mid-distance freestyler, Gawronska also brings in impressive times in the 200 back and the IMs. In December of 2017, she was an individual finalist in the 200 IM and 500 free at the Speedo Winter Junior Champs – West, placing 4th in the 500 free and 23rd in the 200 IM.
Gawronska has only registered times from two meets in 2018, according to USA Swimming’s database: the 2018 TYR Pro Swim Series – Austin in January as well as the 2018 Polish National Champs in May. At those Polish Championships, she won a bronze medal in the 400m IM (4:50.83) and added 5th place finishes in the 200 IM (2:18.95) and the 200 back (2:17.69).
Gawronska joins a large incoming class for Auburn, including Claudia Thamm, Anna-Julia Kutsch, Annie O’Dare, Averee Preble, Hanna Newby, Hannah Mattson, and Shayna Fetes.

Love my bestie<3 she’ll kill it there!
Another strong swimmer representing the Gulf!
She also was an Olympic Trials qualifier back in 2016 in 5 different events- 400/800 free, 200 back and 200/400IM.
She spent a large part of last year abroad, hence the lack of USA swimming meets.
