Swimmer Makes Mark on NCAA Championships
Julia Knox, a sophomore majoring in exercise science, did something no women’s swimmer at the George Washington University has achieved in 30 years: She represented the university at the NCAA championships, making her mark on a national competition that hasn’t seen GW women swimmers in the race since 1995.
In Knox’s final qualifying meet, she made the championships by shaving 5 full seconds off her time in the 400-yard individual medley (IM). She returned from the NCAAs having placed 24th in the 400-yard IM, 52nd in the 200-yard breaststroke and 46th in the 200-yard IM, the event in which she is the reigning Atlantic 10 (A-10) champion and holds a divisional record.

“Thomas Buergenthal visited my Holocaust class @GWtweets today and I’ll never forget it. It was the first time in my life hearing from a Holocaust survivor directly. Research through text is one thing. Hearing directly from the person is another.“
