Eva Greene
Born Sept. 13, 1993 Eva Greene is a freestyle and backstroke specialist from Church Hills, Va. Greene is a senior at the University of California, Berkeley where she’s majoring in Political Economy. Swimming since the age of three, Greene works hard both in the classroom and the pool. During the 2013-2014 swimming season she contributed to a blog on The Washington Post – in her high school career at McLean High School the same publication actually named her to All-Met first-team choice in 2010. She and teammate, Maija Roses, started a blog in 2014 about the Cal swimming team. The two decided to alternate writing a blog per week, and they titled their publication “On the Blocks with Maija and Eva.” As a member of the 2011 recruiting class Greene owned two long course National time standards. Swimming World ranked Greene as a five-star recruit and College Swimming had her in the top 200 prospects amongst the 2011 class.
