Elizabeth Rose
Elizabeth Rose, Armorel, Arkansas, is currently a senior at Armorel High School. She has competed in swimming for over 10 years and has experience running track and cross-country.

Elizabeth is a great example of an athlete who is looking to make a splash in the world of triathlon at the collegiate level, while using her prior experience from other sports to try out for a new sport. Elizabeth would be a great addition to the triathlon community.
Molly Wert
Molly Wert, Scottsdale, Arizona, has been competing in triathlons for about 3 and a half years. She started off as a swimmer, competing since the age of 8. Molly has loved transitioning from swimming into the sport of triathlon, because she has been pushing herself beyond her comfort zone and reaching new heights that she hadn’t dreamed possible.
