The Northern Kentucky University swim team will welcome a class of 24 new student-athletes in the fall of 2025. This group represents a large step forward in the roster-building process of the young team. NKU swimming, which competes in the Horizon League, completed its first-ever season in 2024-2025.
“We are really excited to bring in this large class for year two. This group covers a wide range of events and has a diverse background of swimming experiences,” said head coach Kevin Woodhull-Smith. “These first two classes have the potential to set the standard for future team members.”
The women’s class is headlined by Elmbrook Swim Club’s Ava Hansen, who was 10th in the 500 free and 15th in the 200 free at the 2024 Wisconsin (WIAA) Division I State Championships, and Westfield Aquatics’ Hailey Paulick, a versatile freestyler with bests of 24.7/53.4/1:57 across the 50/100/200.
“We’re excited to welcome the Class of 2025 to the NKU swim family! This group brings a lot of talent and depth across various events, and I’m looking forward to seeing them make an impact right away,” said assistant coach Tatum Detwiler. “I can’t wait to see how their energy, drive, and passion will help push the team to achieve even bigger things this season!”
The men’s class is highlighted by sprint freestyler Jarrett Jenkins (20.8/46.8), butterfly specialist AJ Gomez (49.0/1:51.9) and distance swimmer Alexander Yin.
