4BISMARCK, ND – After an outstanding season, Victoria Murillo caps off her decorated University of Mary swimming career, competing in four events at the 2023 NCAA DII Women's Swimming and Diving National Championships.

Murillo qualified in the 200 free and the 500 free for nationals. Murillo ranks 21^st in the 200 (1:49.70) and 19^th in the 500 (4:56.10). The All-American will also compete in the 1000 and 1650.

The Marauders have had three swimmers earn All-American status Murillo, Andrea Lee and Abbey Zajdzinski. Lee holds All-American honors in three events and Zajdzinski in two events.
