Junior swimmer Eva Merrell, who last competed for Corona del Mar as a freshman and is coming off a strong summer on the U.S. national scene with the Aquazot club, has decided to enroll at Crean Lutheran, she in a direct message on Twitter on Sunday.
“I recently was named to the 2016-2017 USA Swimming National Team and I realized my travel schedule would be busier than before,” she wrote. “While the school is amazing, I feel like at CdM I wouldn’t be able to accomplish my training, travel and academic goals.”
At Crean Lutheran, Merrell said she will be part of a hybrid program with three classes on campus and three online.
