SMITHTOWN, NY — Leah Treglia is among the elite high school swimmers in the United States.

Treglia, who is set to start her junior year at Smithtown High School West, was named a National Interscholastic Swim Coaches Association girls high school swimming All-American, according to the Smithtown Central School District.

Treglia's honor came from her standout showing in the 100-yard backstroke. She produced a time of 55.45 seconds at the county championships — the top public-school time in the state and second overall during the 2020-21 academic year.
