BATON ROUGE – Caroline Beene, a senior at Saint Joseph’s Academy in Baton Rouge, has signed a national letter of intent to swim for the University of Alabama next fall.
Beene trains at Crawfish Aquatics and has qualified for the Winter Junior National Championships in the 50 free. Her best events include the 50 free (23.70 yards/26.89 long course), 100 free (51.83/58.91), 200 free (1:53.47/2:13.95), 100 back (57.18/1:06.54) and 100 fly (56.50/1:04.36).
Beene will not only bring fast times to the Crimson Tide, but great leadership skills as well. She was named the 2013 Baton Rouge Advocate Swimmer of the Year and served as captain of the 2014 Louisiana Zone Team. She’s won multiple Louisiana state titles and has been a part of numerous state relay records as well.
“Alabama is a really great fit for Caroline and her skill set,” said Jayme Cramer, head coach of the Elite Development group at Crawfish Aquatics. “She will thrive under the direction and guidance of Denny and Jonty, who have done amazing things with the Tide since they came in three years ago.”
