The name “Simon” might be familiar to longtime fans of a couple of Notre Dame programs. [autotag]Ben Simon[/autotag] played four years for the hockey team, was a professional player for over a decade and now is a coach. [autotag]Beth Simon[/autotag] was on the women’s golf. Now, the family tradition will continue.
[autotag]Kate Simon[/autotag], a 2025 swimming recruit from East Grand Rapids, Michigan, has announced her commitment to the Irish. Her official announcement read as follows:
“I’m very excited to announce my commitment to the University of Notre Dame!! I’m so grateful for the opportunity to swim for the Irish and want to thank everyone who has been a part of helping me achieve my lifelong dream! #GoIrish”
Simon has placed highly in numerous high-level competitions. She does the best in freestyle events but also does well in the backstroke. Here’s hoping she makes both her parents and the swimming team proud upon her enrollment.
