Bio
Get to Know Bradie ...
At what age did you start swimming and how did you get into the sport?
- 5 years old. I joined the team right after I was done with swim lessons.
- I would do gymnastics because I did it until my freshman year of high school.
- I chose KU because of how much I loved the team and campus.
