Her parents chose to enroll a superstar student athlete at Yorktown High School. They have good sense, obviously.

Her parents chose to have her do private swim coaching.

I went to high school with a previous world record holder in this event who moved to our town, with its one high school, because it was where the coaches she wanted to train with lived. Our high school didn't have a pool or a swim team, and only about a third of the kids went to college, so it had nothing to do with the school--for athletes at that level, its about coaching. (My friend went to Stanford, so going to a so-so school didn't hold her back any. Of course, she had already been in the Olympics, which I'm sure helped with college recruiting.)

So much for Yorktown being overrated.

Yorktown had nothing to do with it.

Any school in the DMV, public or private, would have killed to her her. She chose Yorktown. So, yes, it had something to do with it.

On behalf of the Yorktown parent community, I am kindly asking you to stfu. You’re embarrassing.

LOL. So thirsty, kid.

+1 But funny in her grasping at the links between Yorktown and fame, this whole thread has made me giggle.

Good luck to her in the Olympics! I'm sure we'll all be watching.

I'm not saying Yorktown had anything to do with her success. What I'm saying is she could have gone anywhere, yet Yorktown was good enough for her.

She “chose” her zoned public school?

You are embarrassing yourself here.

I just saw her in the trials on TV. Excited to have her and Katie Ledecki (Bethesda) to root for.
