Congratulations to Madison Wills who has signed a scholarship agreement with the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee!

On top of this, she has broken 18 Otago Regional records and also has 3 gold medals in Surf Lifesaving.

This university competes within the NCAA Division 1 Horizon League Conference. Wisconsin-Milwaukee had a very good 2022 season, winning all of their meets this year and finishing second in the Horizon League Championships. The school has amazing athletic resources and accommodates just over 20,000 students. We cannot wait to watch Madison compete this Fall! Next Stop, Wisconsin!

From Madison:

“I want to be a part of a team where I am pushed to my limits while also having an enjoyable time and enjoying everything I do. I want to be able to perform to my peak potential and see how far I can go with my swimming, thrive while balancing study, swim, socializing and meeting new people, and compete with a team I have really connected with on a family level. I have always dreamed of going to America and competing in the college system as it is such a unique experience and something I will never be able to do in New Zealand.”
