Maddie Raue has announced her verbal commitment to the Loyola University New Orleans swim team for the 2017-18 season. Raue is a senior at Bishop Eustace Preparatory School in Pennsauken Township, New Jersey. She swims year-round for Jersey Wahoos.

  • 50 free – 25.70

Raue’s mother added: “[Maddie is] very happy to have been accepted as a social justice scholar and is looking forward to performing community service in the city of New Orleans, while studying Journalism or Psychology and minoring in Sociology. Maddie is continuing the tradition of college swimming following after her parents Brent and Jennifer Raue who met each other on the swim team at the Catholic University of America and graduated in 1996, Brent was just recently inducted into the hall of fame their [sic] for his excellent swim career.”

The Wolf Pack competed in their inaugural season during the 2016-17 school year, and made quite a statement in the NAIA. The women’s team finished 14th, and the men 15th, at the 2017 NAIA National Championships. The women’s team scored three relays (one was DQd) and had individual top-16 performances from freshmen Nina Mantich, Mallory Adair, and Paige Carter. Four men’s relays scored, as did freshmen Cole Moreno, Trey James, John Tarpey, and Timothy Buisson.

An affiliate member of the Mid-South Conference, Loyola joined Bethel (Tenn.), Campbellsville (Ky.), Cumberlands (Ky.), Life (Ga.), Lindenwood-Belleville (Ill.) and Lindsey Wilson (Ky.) as Mid-South schools that sponsor swimming.
