Before that, most of her competitive swimming came for her club team. She was a team captain of her club team her senior year and finished first in the sectionals in the 100 breaststroke. As a freshman, she was second at the state meet in the 100 butterfly and the 200 IM.

Personal: Abby was born on February 24, 1987 in Houston, Texas. She is the daughter of Scott and Tracy Hoisington and has a younger brother, Nathan, and a younger sister, Hannah. She intends to major in business and minor in spanish at Penn State.

Why I Chose Penn State: "It was a perfect fit for me. There is a great balance between athletics and academics, but most importantly, the coaches, team and environment are excellent."
