Jordan McGinty of the Aquajets Swim Club and Wayzata High School has committed to swim for the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers in 2019-20. She will join Emma Lezer in the class of 2023.
“So excited to announce my verbal commitment to swim and study for the University of Minnesota! I can’t thank my coaches, teammates, and family enough for helping me get to this point! 〽️ #skiumah”
McGinty was runner-up in the 100 free (50.42) at the 2017 MSHSL Girls AA Swim & Dive Championships in November.
