2022

Cristy starred for the Indiana Swimming and Diving program from 1998-01 and was one of the conference's dominant freestyle swimmers throughout her career. She captured five Big Ten event championships overall, including three in the 50 freestyle (1998, 1999, 2001) and one in the 100 freestyle (2001). She was especially dominant during her senior season, a year that culminated with her earning IU Female Athlete of the Year honors. During that 2000-01 campaign, she was tabbed as the Big Ten Swimmer of the Championships after winning two individual titles along with the 200 freestyle relay at the conference meet in Bloomington. During the meet, she set a new Big Ten record in the 50 freestyle in the prelims, and then broke her own mark while winning the final. From there she advanced to the NCAA Championships where she earned All-America honors in two individual events and five relays.
