Bellevue Christian’s Williams headed to Olympic Trials

Kim Williams, a freshman at Bellevue Christian School and member of the Bellevue Club and Bellevue High School swim teams, qualified for the Olympic Trials in both the 200 and 400 individual medleys and will be among the nation’s fastest in Omaha, Neb. from June 25 through July 2 with spots in London on the line.

The All-American is the 39th ranked swimmer in the U.S. in the 400 and is part of the BCST Senior Elite Group for coach Andy Pym. She won the 100 yard breaststroke for Bellevue at the 3A swim and dive state championships in November.
