After becoming the first Lycoming College women's swimmer to reach the NCAA Championships in 38 years, junior
 Katherine Brown (Glenside, Pa./Abington) was named the college's Most Outstanding Female Athlete.
The MAC's David B. Eavenson Swimmer of the Year, Brown set school records in each of the individual events she swam in at the MAC Championships, winning two and setting the MAC record in the 100-yard breaststroke at 1:03.88.
Brown broke the school record in the 100-yard breaststroke by nearly a second and a half with a time that ultimately qualified her for the NCAA Championships. She followed that the next night by posting a 2:23.03 to win the 200-yard breaststroke, winning by two seconds and breaking the school record by four. She also set the school record in the 50-yard freestyle at 24.56 on the first night of the championships.
Brown also finished 17
th in the 100-yard breaststroke at the NCAA Championships. Her time of 1:04.38 in the breaststroke was just five-one-hundredths of a second off the time of 1:04.33 from Bates' Abigail Gibbons, which would have guaranteed Brown a spot in the consolation finals and an Honorable Mention All-American accolade from the CSCAA.Â

During the regular season, she also set Lamade Gym Natatorium pool records in both the 100- (1:06.48) and 200-yard (2:23.63) breaststroke for the Warriors.
