Originally from California, the freshman swam numerous personal best times at midseason. She posted a lifetime best of a 1:48.31 200 free during a relay lead off as well as a 4:18.19 in the 400 IM.
She made the SEC roster for Kentucky and went on to score at the individual level. She finished 23rd in the 500 free in a lifetime best 4:44.02. She also scored in the 1650 free as she was 23rd in a personal best 16:24.17. Her 400 IM time of a 4:16.24 also marked another personal best as she finished 29th. Her 23rd place finishes earned a total of four individual points.
Hamilton’s best SCY times are:

Auburn notably only had one finalist in the 500 free as Julia Strojnowska led the way with a 19th place finish touching in a 4:41.48. Strojnowska was also the team’s only scorer in the 1650 free as she swam a 16:19.43 for 17th. The Canadian native Strojnowska just finished her freshman season with Auburn so the two will overlap for their remaining time at Auburn.
