Our female athlete of the month is junior swimmer Marie Cloonan. Throughout her junior season at Air Academy, Marie has proven to be a respected leader as well as an excellent swimmer. Marie swims in several events but is going to state for the 100 backstroke. “Swim season is very fun. I made state this year in my 100 back; I went a 1:06.47 in my first meet. I also swim the 50 free my fastest time is a 25.83 and I swim the 400 free relay. Freshman year, I got a record in that relay with Sammy, Kate and Maddie. We won against Discovery Canyon (that’s it lol). Love my team so much.” Go kadets!
