King Set for Career Curtain Call

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Thirty-two athletes and coaches with ties to Indiana athletics compete on the world stage this month between the World Aquatics Championships and the FISU World University Games across three disciplines – swimming, diving and track and field.

Twenty-one Hoosiers participate in the World Aquatics Championships in Singapore between July 16-August 3. Eleven more earned bids to the FISU World University Games in Germany July 16-27. Fans can stream the World Aquatics Championships on Peacock and watch the World University Games on FISU.TV.

The Indiana swimming and diving program sends a total 30 participants to the two meets – 21 to Singapore (13 swimmers, four divers, four coaches) and nine to Germany (five swimmers, three divers, one coach). Two IU track and field athletes – Trelee Banks-Rose and Jania Hodges – will represent Team USA at the World University Games.

This month Hoosiers represent a total of 10 countries. Nineteen of the 32 Hoosiers compete for Team USA. Singaporeans Ching Hwee Gan and Mikkel Lee will help host the World Aquatics Championships in their home country.

Indiana University alum Lilly King will compete for the final time in Singapore after announcing her impending retirement in June. King will race the 50-meter breaststroke and 100-meter breaststroke individually and could also swim the USA's medley relays. King is an 18-time World Champion and 27-time world championship medalist.
