ECCC Swimmer Heads to National Championships

East Central Community College freshman Gabrielle Baldwin, a standout from Laurel and a Dean's List student, has qualified for the 2025 NJCAA Men's & Women's Swimming and Diving Championships. The national competition will take place March 5-8 at the Burt Flickinger Athletic Center in Buffalo, N.Y.


Baldwin secured her spot with a dominant performance in the season opener, clocking a 25.17-second finish in the 50-yard freestyle. She currently holds the title of the fastest swimmer in the Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC) and has qualified in multiple events.


"To ECCC President Dr. Brent Gregory, Director of Athletics Paul Nixon, and my coach Bryan Olmstead—I have spent 12 years training for an opportunity like this, and I am thrilled to represent East Central on the national stage. To God be the glory," said Baldwin.
