Tecumseh, Michigan’s Karlee Marsh has verbally committed to Oakland University for 2017-18. Marsh is a senior at Tecumseh High School who specializes mainly in freestyle and backstroke. She is the reigning MHSAA Girls D3 champion in the 100 free.
“I’m very happy to announce my verbal commitment to Oakland University! I can’t wait to continue my swim career at a university where I know I will be pushed hard to reach my goals. I’m so excited for these next four years! #goldengrizzly “
