Tualatin Hills Breaststroker Tiffany Zhao to Swim for Brown in 2015-16

Tiffany Zhao, who swims for Westview High School and Tualatin Hills Swim Club, has elected to swim at Brown University beginning in the 2015-16 season.

“Meeting the Brown coaching staff and swim team this past fall, I immediately felt at home. The environment is one where I know I will be challenged both athletically and academically. Collegiate swimming has always been a dream of mine. At Brown, I can compete with the team as well as attain a high-tier education by crafting my own intellectual journey with the open curriculum.”

Zhao is primarily a breaststroker. At the 2015 Oregon 6A Swimming State Championships, she placed second in the 100 breast (1:04.45) and sixth in the 200 IM (2:09.09). She also led off Westview’s 200 free relay (24.77) and anchored their 400 free relay (53.14). Zhao’s top times include:

Event SCY LCM
50 breast 33.84
100 breast 1:03.67 1:13.80
200 breast 2:18.95 2:44.94
50 free 24.18 27.55
100 free 52.57 59.94
200 IM 2:09.07 2:29.83

 

Zhao would have been an “A” finalist in both the 100 and 200 breast at 2015 Ivy League Women’s Championships. She is part of a strong recruiting class that also includes Charlotte Rosenberg, Emma Wittmer, Jackie Karpowicz, Jill Glasser, Kendall Crawford, Maddie Salesky, and Tatiana Prendella.
