STANFORD, Calif. - Seniors Ella Eastin, Leah Stevens and Kim Williams were selected as team captains for the 2018-19 season as announced by Paul A. Violich Director of Women's Swimming Greg Meehan on Wednesday.
"This is a very deserving honor for Ella, Leah and Kim," Meehan said. "They have each grown into this role over the past three years, and our team is already thriving because of their leadership skills. I'm excited to see where it takes us."
Hailing from Irvine, Calif., Louisville, Ky., and Bellevue, Wash., respectively, Eastin, Stevens and Williams have been key members of Stanford's back-to-back Pac-12 and NCAA championship teams. The trio has combined for 23 All-America honors, including 13 national titles and 11 Pac-12 titles, and has been equally inspiring in the classroom with six Pac-12 All-Academic honors between them.
The Cardinal received their national championship rings on Friday, and got the first look at the team's documentary "Sustaining Success", which will premiere to the public on Facebook Thursday at 7 p.m. PT. A link can be found here.
Stanford opens the 2018-19 season on Tuesday against Utah at 2 p.m., and visits Washington State at 2 p.m. on Friday.
