A three-sport athlete and star in soccer and track & field, Caitlin Mullarkey was selected as a first-ballot hall of famer, earning a spot in Swarthmore history in her first year eligible.
Mullarkey is just one of 31 students in school history to earn the prestigious Rhodes Scholarship. The honors biology graduate was a semifinalist for the NCAA's Woman of the Year Award and earned Academic All-America honors.
She graduated with four school track records and still holds the record for the indoor 5,000-meter run and the steeplechase. She earned All-America honors in the indoor mile by finishing fifth overall.
On the soccer field, she was the first defender in Centennial Conference history to be on the All-Centennial First Team all four seasons and she was an all-region defender three times.
Mullarkey, who attained a PhD in clinical medicine and vaccinology, is a professor at McMaster University in Toronto.
