Gabbie Brown of Aliso Viejo, California has elected to stay in-stay for her college career and has made a verbal commitment to the University of California, San Diego for 2017-18.
“I recently committed to swim for UC San Diego and I could not be any happier! I’m so excited to be a triton with my future teammates-Victoria Epps and rachel taylor!” [sic]
