Danielle Hepler has announced her intention to swim for the University of Missouri beginning in the fall of 2018. Hepler hails from Katy, Texas and is a rising senior at Seven Lakes High School, although she doesn’t participate in high school swimming. Hepler swims for First Colony Swim Team. Hepler follows two older sisters into collegiate swimming; Melissa Hepler swam at Eastern Illinois University and Kristen Hepler is a rising sophomore at Georgia Tech.
“I chose the University of Missouri because the school has everything I was looking for. The coaching staff have great goals for the program and the team has so much energy. The facilities and equipment available for the athletes are just unbeatable. I can’t wait to be a part of the team! Go tigers!”
