Not one to shy away from accolades, Krueger has been recognized as the Midland High School Athlete of the Year for the last two years—incredible achievement for any athlete! She showed her versatility by playing volleyball until her freshman year before deciding to go all-in on swimming, where she’s clearly found her true calling.

Lifetime Bests and Records

Hannah’s swimming skills are truly impressive, with lifetime bests in several events: her 200 back (2:02.71), 200 IM (2:08.12), and many personal bests at Summer Junior Nationals, including in the 50 free (27.04) and 100 free (57.64). Her determination has led her to achieve exceptional SCY times that scored at the 2025 SEC Championships.
