Haan shined for the Eagles in an impressive freshman campaign, winning the 100 free, 100 back and 200 back while also contributing to relay wins in the 200 medley, 400 medley, 400 free and 800 free at the 2016 CCSA Championship. She set all-time records in the 200 free (1:46.20), 100 back (51.65), 400 medley and 800 free relays at this year’s championship.
