CHRISTIANSBURG, VA. - After years of knocking on the door, the William & Mary women's swim team captured the CAA title Saturday night in Christiansburg. Annie Tuttle's gold in the 200 breast and Katie Stevenson's first place in the 100 free gave the Tribe all the separation they would need to win the meet despite not participating in the diving portion. Head coach Nate Kellogg was named the CAA Coach of the Year following the victory. 

From Coach Kellogg- I'm so proud of the way our women handled themselves throughout the entire season. They established their identity as touch, fearless, relentless, and resilient. This group displayed this throughout the meet. We also owe a ton of gratitude to our alumni, who paved the way for this group."
