Jane Kavanagh, a talented swimmer from Westfield, New Jersey, has officially committed to Notre Dame for the fall 2027 season, class of 2031. This is a typical recruiting announcement from SwimSwam, based on detailed data about her. Kavanagh swims for Fanwood-Scotch Plains YMCA and is a Junior National qualifier. Her best result is 2nd place at YMCA Short Course Nationals in the 200 free with 1:48.86. She also placed 4th in 200 back with 1:58.36 and 200 IM with 2:02.89. At Summer Juniors, she finished 102nd in 200 back with 2:25.64 and 130th in 100 free with 59.30. Notre Dame women's team finished 11th/15 at the 2026 ACC Championships with 366 points. The analysis shows Kavanagh is a mid-level Division I prospect, strong in 200 free but needs about 2 seconds improvement to reach ACC standards.
