Women's Swimming Inks Three For 2013-14

EMMITSBURG, Md. – Mount St. Mary's University women's swimming head coach Neil Yost has announced the signings of Allison Baker (Toms River, N.J./Toms River), Amanda Moore (Katy, Texas/Cinco Ranch) and Hailey Vogt (Paramus, N.J./Immaculate Heart Academy) to National Letters of Intent. The trio will enroll at the Mount in the fall of 2013.

"All of the November signings have a few things in common," said Yost. "They all come from strong club and high school programs that have not only instilled a high level of swimming but also a culture of success and dedication.  All three are will not only have an impact in their primary events, but are also diverse enough to perform well in their secondary events."

Baker is a four-year letterwinner on the girl's swimming team at Toms River High School. A team captain in her senior year, Baker has been a Meet of Champions qualifier in her first three seasons and was named to the All-Shore first team in her freshman and sophomore campaigns. Baker won the county championship in the 500 free as a junior and helped her team to the county title in 2009 and 2010.

"Allison will have an opportunity to impact the team in every freestyle event, from the 50 all the way through the mile," said Yost.

"Amanda is a strong swimmer across multiple events and distances," said Yost. "Another strong freestyler that will also have the opportunity to continue The Mount's strong showing in the fly events at the conference level."
