Jerome was awarded the team’s Hardest Worker Award to go along with her Team Spirit Award from the previous season. For a third consecutive season, she was a member of the Cornell squad that competed at the Ivy League Championships. She appears on the team’s career top 10 list in four individual events: sixth in the 400 IM, fourth in the 200 breast, third in the 200 IM and second in the 100 breast. Her teammates and the coaching staff elected Jerome captain of the 2013-14 women’s team. She was selected as the recipient of the team’s Hardest Worker Award. The team's Spirit Award winner in 2012, Jerome capped off a successful season by breaking the school record in the 100 breast (1:03.01).
