- Matt Kredich says, "Meghan is one of the most accomplished swimmers we've ever brought into the women's team. She's a seasoned international competitor, and as a Pan Ams silver medalist, she has shown that she knows what it takes to win at the highest level. As a member of a great YMCA team, she's also learned what it means to be on a team and she's incredibly team focused. Meghan has a lot of tools -- speed, endurance, technical proficiency, and great work ethic. She's going to have a big impact on our program right away."
