Kristin Darwin graduated from The John Cooper School (JCS) in The Woodlands, Texas and was a club member of The Woodlands Swim Team (TWST). While at JCS, Kristin served as the Senior Class Vice-President, Captain of the Varsity Swimming and Diving Team, Business Editor for the Yearbook and was involved in Habitat for Humanity.

Kristin started swimming competitively at the age of 8 and immediately fell in love with the sport. She has been twice named a Scholastic All-American and was a Southwest Preparatory Conference Champion her sophomore, junior, and senior year. Kristin received the Most Valuable Swimmer Award for the JCS Varsity Swim Team and is proud to have been able to contribute to such a great team of people. Her strongest events include the 200 butterfly, 200 freestyle and the IMs.

At Yale, Kristin hopes to make the most of the opportunity provided to her by the school's amazing academics and strong swimming program. She couldn't be happier to be on such a close-knit team and hopes the next four years won't pass too quickly!
