The University of the Incarnate Word (UIW) is known for its athletic programs, including artistic swimming. This summer, several UIW artistic swimmers are competing in major European events.
International Competitions
The European Junior Championships were held June 30-July 4 in Munich, Germany. The European Championships are scheduled for July 31-Aug. 5 in Paris, and the World Junior Championships will take place Aug. 12-16 in Budapest, Hungary.
Marloes Steenbeek, a sophomore at UIW, traveled back to the Netherlands to compete in the European Championships. “It’s very special also that I even have an opportunity to come back,” said Steenbeek.
Alyson Tshuma, the artistic swimming head coach, said, “It’s always a privilege and an honor to share about our sport, to share about our athletes.” The UIW artistic swimming program is one of only two in the state at the collegiate level.
