I want to express gratitude for my family and friends for supporting me throughout this journey and give a special thanks to Coach Rachel, Coach Eddie and the rest of the Northwestern swimming coaching staff as well as Coach Joe, Coach Brandon and RSD. I feel truly honored and am looking forward to my collegiate career! GO WILDCATS”
Ferguson does her club swimming with Rancho San Dieguito and finished 10th in the 200m free and 11th in the 100m free this past summer at Sacramento Futures. Last short course season, she had seven top-10 finishes at the SI Winter Age Group Championships in December.
Her best times include:
