Colby College Swimming and Diving

2013-2014

Olivia spent the first half of her junior season abroad but returned in time to join the Aquamules in Puerto Rico for winter training. At NESCAC Championships, she was member of the 200 and 400 free relays.

2014-2015

Olivia had a perfect culmination to her Colby swimming career. After an excellent dual meet season, four years of hard work paid off. At NESCAC Championships she had a sweep of career best times and was a key member on the 200 and 800 free relays.

Personal

Olivia is a particularly talented musician. She is a member of the on-campus A Capella group the Colbyettes and she writes and plays folk songs on her guitar. She is confident that if Taylor Swift ever challenged her to duathlon that featured both distance freestyle and singing/song writing, she would win. Her twin brother also is a swimmer in the NESCAC conference, competing for Middlebury College.
