MIAMI (March 5, 2019) - FIU swimming and diving Head Coach Randy Horner announced the signing of Emily Cordovi (Miami, FL / Gulliver Prep) on Tuesday. 

"Emily is a great fit for our program. Her experience from Gulliver Prep, winning team titles and swimming fast is so valuable as she heads to the NCAA ranks. She makes our team better immediately," said Head Coach Randy Horner. 
 
The NISCA All-American, Cordovi, will graduate from Gulliver Preparatory School in Pinecrest, Florida in June. During her Sophomore and Junior years she was victorious in both the 100 fly and 100 back at the Florida 2A high school state meet.

As a sophomore she went 54.67 to claim the butterfly crown and 56.34 to win the back. Her Junior year she tapped in at 53.86 in the fly, missing the 2A record by .41, and touched at 55.19 in the back. She also split a 24.49 fly on Gulliver Prep's state-champion 200 medley relay and 51.36 on the winning 400 free relay.  

She capped off her High School career winning the 2A State Title in the 100 Backstroke to go along with two State Championships in the 200 Medley and 200 Freestyle Relays leading her team to a State Championship for Gulliver Prep.

Cordovi swims year-round for Miami's Gulliver Swim Club under Chris George. She has continued to drop time since high school season, going best times in the 50/100 free and 200 IM at American Short Course Championships in February and in the 200 free, 50/200 back and 100 breast at Florida Gulf Coast LSC Senior Short Course Championships in March. Last summer she went 1:01.96 in the LCM 100 fly and 2:16.00 in the 200 fly at Southern Zone Sectionals.
