Glendale, Ariz.- A trio of speedsters- Senior Emma Stevens, Sophomore Amani Gable, and Freshman Sarah Stubblefield- earned NAIA Women's Swimming All-American honors as recently announced by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics.
Head Coach Brad Hering stated, "Amani, Emma, and upcoming star Sarah, all really performed well, despite all the COVID training/ traveling challenges. All these beautiful athletes performed super well this season! So proud of their poise and perseverance and joy!!"
Due to the cancellation of the national championship meet, the NAIA selected All-Americans for the year were based on individual qualifying times.
Stevens and Gable both qualified for nationals in the 50 and 100 free. Stubblefield earned a 100 free qualification.
The trio along with Monet Marquez had qualified in the 200 free relay as well but only individual times were considered. Their 200 free relay effort at the GSAC Championships broke the ACU program record.
For Stevens, she earned her fourth NAIA All-American honor. Gable collected her second All-American recognition.
Way to go- Emma Stevens, Amani Gable, and Sarah Stubblefield.
