Unconventional students at Rice: Mighty Casey

When you choose to go down one path in life, you can always wonder what might have happened if you had chosen another. Four years after Casey Clark decided to come to Rice University on a swimming scholarship, it’s hard to imagine any other path being more successful.

The senior civil and environmental engineer from Spring, Texas, has qualified for the Olympic trials twice, won back-to-back Conference-USA championships, was named C-USA swimmer of the week multiple times and has been on the C-USA Academic Honor Roll all four of her years as an Owl.

As her career at Rice winds down, the Baker College senior reflects on her time in and out of the pool.
