Erin Lucas and Erin Hotchkiss are the two graduating female seniors from Lions’ swimming program. Both have been competitively swimming for a majority of their life with Lucas at 15 years and Hotchkiss at 13.

Lucas is double majoring in Sport Business and International Hospitality and Tourism desiring to plan amateur sport events after graduating. Hotchkiss is a mathematics major and after graduating plans on getting a masters in Biostatistics/Epidemiology and do research. Lucas has obtained the girls and women in sports award freshman year, set school records for relays, and was conference finalist freshman and sophomore year in Sunshine State Conference during her athletic career here. Similarly, Hotchkiss has set 5 school records and has been conference finalist in the last 3 years. Lucas said the training trip to Key West is her favorite memory while Hotchkiss’s favorite memory is when her previous coach, Cyle Sage, had a pie fight with one of the graduating seniors. The Lions’ Pride wishes you both the best for your senior year!
