CHARLOTTE, N.C. --- Olivia Chambers became UNI's first-ever para-swimming national champion over the weekend as the Panther sophomore picked up a pair of gold medal finishes and another bronze medal at the U.S. Paralympic National Championships at the Mecklenburg County Aquatics Center. Chambers was also named the Swimmer of the Meet by virtue of having the best overall point total among competing athletes.
"With the points, we didn't really know who had won until they announced on the podium," Chambers said. "Hearing my name for Swimmer of the Meet was crazy. I definitely wasn't expecting that.
