Funding for World University Games in August 2023

Friends, Family, and Dawg Supporters,

I have been selected to represent the USA Swim Team at this summer's World University Games in Chengdu, China from July 28-August 8. This is an incredible opportunity to represent our country as one of only 20 male and 20 female swimmers.

The World University Games is an international competition bringing together athletes from all around the globe. There will be approximately 300 American athletes in the delegation competing in 18 different sports. In total, there will be more than 10,000 student-athletes from at least 100 different countries, and more than 300 million people will tune in to watch the games live!

Although I have finished my NCAA career, I am continuing to swim professionally in hopes of pursuing opportunities like this and representing my country internationally.

My goal is to raise $6,100 to cover the expenses associated with the trip that USA Swimming is not covering for the swimming delegation this year. Those expenses include flights, lodging, and meals.

I would be forever grateful if you would be willing to support me in this opportunity to represent our country this summer at the World University Games in China.

Thank you in advance for your generosity! As always, Go Dawgs!
