Gormley looks equipped to contribute to the Wildcat program in fly and IM. Junior Izzy Gati leads the Wildcats in butterfly; she went 51.60 in the 100 and 1:52.54 in the 200 last season and finished second in the 200 at the 2020 SEC Championships. Caitlin Brooks (53.1) and Trinity Ward (53.7) are both sophomores who raced the 100 fly at SECs last season. Senior Bailey Bonnett returns after making the 200 IM A-final at the 2020 SEC Champs; she’s been 1:56.69/4:05.62 in the IMs.
Gormley joins Jordan Agliano in Kentucky’s class of 2026.
