      Brooke carries a 4.0 gpa where she is a pending Academic All-American; is a member of the National Honor Society, Spanish National Honor Society and a Link Crew Commissioner.

She is an outstanding team leader. Anyone who knows her will sleep better at night knowing she is training to protect our country,” Boardman head swim coach O’Halloran said.
