Victoria Kwan from Ontario, Canada has made a verbal commitment to the University of Michigan’s class of 2022. Kwan swims for Markham Aquatic Club and represents Canada internationally.
“Super excited to announce my verbal commitment to the University of Michigan! I am so thankful for all my friends, family, and coaches that have helped me get to where I am today. I believe that Michigan will provide the best opportunities for both my swimming and academics and I’m looking forward to be a part of such an amazing team! #GOBLUE”

At Junior Worlds in Indianapolis she competed in the 400 free (19th), 200 fly (7th), and 400 IM (12th), notching personal-best times in each one.

Swimming for Michigan was one of the great honors of my life. The lessons learned as a student-athlete and the friendships created during those magical years have endured more than 40 years. – GO BLUE! – Larry Day, 200 flyer, Class of 1973.
