Carli Cronk Awarded The Trischa L. Zorn Award by USA Swimming

Carli Cronk, a 16-year-old swimmer from San Antonio, Texas, was USA Swimming's 2022 Trischa L. Zorn Award recipient.

USA Swimming hands out this award to honor a swimmer or relay team with a disability for the previous year’s outstanding performances. Among previous award recipients are Rebecca Meyers, Jessica Long, Marcus Titus and Erin Popovich.

Cronk set a new record for most gold medals earned in a single Deaflympic Games over the summer in Caxias do Sul, Brazil. She won 12 events by a large margin over her competitors. Not only did she take home a significant number of golds, but she also broke 3 deaf world records in the 1500 free, 200 fly, and 400 IM.
