Personal

Selected as flag bearer for U.S. Team at 2020 Winter Youth Olympic Games in Lausanne, Switzerland

Daughter of PJ Madigan and Melissa Madigan, Lexie has one sister, Riley. Her hobbies include swimming, running and playing soccer. She started competitive cross-country skiing and biathlon in 7th grade and qualified for Junior Nationals in 8th grade as a second-year U14. One year later, Lexie qualified for Youth/Junior World Championships but didn't meet minimum age requirement to attend. Her favorite athlete is Katie Ledecky because of her driven and hard-working personality both at school and at the pool. She is a member of the local swim team and competes in the spring and summer. Lexie will never turn down the chance to hop in the pool for a workout!
