62ND SETTE COLLI TROPHY 

Speaking after lowering her own Italian record in the 100m free at the Sette Colli Trophy, becoming the first Italian under 53″ barrier,  Sara Curtis reflected on how training alongside one of the strongest groups in the world has transformed both her swimming and her mindset.

“It has been incredible,” Curtis said. “I can tell I’m a different person now. It changed me a lot, not only as an athlete but also personally.”

Curtis credited her Virginia teammates—including Gretchen Walsh, Alex Walsh and Kate Douglass—for helping her adapt to a new environment and continue developing.

“My teammates have helped me so much. It’s amazing to be part of such a great program.”

The 18-year-old also said that working with Virginia has introduced new elements into her training, particularly in sprint freestyle.

“I’m working a lot on things I had never really worked on before. It’s been challenging, but also really fun.”

Her record-breaking performance in Rome made the moment even more meaningful.

“It was special to be part of such a fast race and to swim faster than my Italian record, especially considering where I am in training. Yesterday and today I was probably even happier with the 100 than the 50.”

Curtis added that racing alongside Walsh before the final made the experience even more memorable.

“I spoke with Gretchen before the race, and I’m really happy she’s my teammate.”

With the European Championships approaching, Curtis believes both she and European sprint swimming continue to move forward.

“European swimming keeps getting faster every month. Racing here, in this pool and with this crowd, makes me really happy.”
