NEW COMMIT: The College of William and Mary has picked up their first verbal commitment for the 2021-22 season and beyond from Cohasset, Nass. native Leigh Spicer.
She told Swimming World:
“I chose William and Mary for the amazing team atmosphere. I fell in love with the beautiful campus and knew it was a place that felt like home. The coaches and swimmers were so welcoming and I can’t wait to be part of the team! Thank you to everyone who got me here! Go TRIBE!!”
A talented freestyler, Spicer swims year-round with Kingfish Swimming and most recently finished seventh in the 200 free and ninth in the 400 IM at the New England Age Group Championships. She recorded a pair of top-16 finishes at New England Seniors in December and placed 16th in the 400m free at Genevea Futures last summer.
She is also a rising senior at Cohasset High School and has earned USA Swimming Scholastic All-American honors.
Her best times include:
- 200 free – 1:53.83
- 500 free – 5:00.51
- 1000 free – 10:12.19
- 1650 free – 17:02.88
- 200 back – 2:06.89
Spicer will make a big impact when she suits up for the Tribe as a member of the class of 2025. She would’ve scored in the top08 of the mile at the 2020 CAA Championships and is just on the brink of scoring range in the 200/500 free. She’ll add her talents to a training group led by Elizabeth Intihar and Grace Tramack.
