After graduation, she also spent time coaching at her alma mater.
“What could be more fun than this! Ever since watching Rowdy Gaines on TV, I have always wanted to get in the booth and being able to do that while talking about the Blue Hens with one of our alums is such a cool opportunity,” Rawak said. “I’m excited to get on the broadcast to celebrate the success of our senior class and cheer on the team!”
During his time with the Blue Hens, Frick earned a bronze medal at the 2023 Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) Championships in the 200 breaststroke at 1:58.49, which currently ranks as the second fastest time in the event in program history. His times of 55.25 in the 100 breaststroke and 1:50.77 in the 200 IM also ranks eighth and 10th in program history.
