STANFORD – Maddy Schaefer, a multiple All-American and NCAA relay champion for Stanford is no longer with the team according to women’s head coach Greg Meehan.
After noticing her absence from the Stanford line-up this weekend, Swimming World reached out to Meehan for clarification. Meehan simply replied that “Schaefer is no longer swimming for Stanford.”
Meehan, who would not confirm the reason behind the move, did state that he “really liked the team” he has heading into the championship season.
Schaefer finishes her Stanford career as a 14-time All-American with four relay NCAA titles as part of the 200 free relay and 400 free relay in both 2012 and 2014.

Schaefer did not respond to a request for comment.
Wow and WOW!
She was a major part of Cardinal line-up and her absence — if permanent — will have major consequences for Stanford’s title hopes. Then the question becomes: will this have any impact on Cardinal recruiting and swimmers who have committed for next season?
