Alicia (Finnigan) Cardie is one of the most decorated student-athletes in Liberty swimming & diving program history, finishing her time at Liberty as a standout both in the pool and in the classroom.

Cardie posted a program-record 10 podium finishes at the Coastal Collegiate Swimming Association (CCSA) Championship. She led the program to a team championship in 2019 during her senior season, Liberty’s second conference title in school history.

The native of Sugar Land, Texas, was named the CCSA Female Swimmer of the Year in 2018 and earned her second-straight appearance at the NCAA Swimming & Diving Championship. In 2018, she was presented the NCAA Elite 90 Award, given to the student-athlete with the highest GPA at the national championship event.

The 2019 Rock Royer/Mac Rivera Award winner was a four-time CSCAA Scholar All-American honoree, including first team honors in 2017 and 2018.

At the time of her Hall of Fame induction, Cardie still held the program record in the 200 butterfly, while ranking third in program history in the 500 freestyle and 100 butterfly.

Cardie competed well on the national stage during her standout collegiate career, scoring three times at USA Swimming National meets. She placed fifth in the 200-meter butterfly at the 2018 USA Swimming Winter Nationals. In 2016, she competed in the U.S. Olympic Team Trials.
