A three-time All-Northeast Conference First Team selection as a pitcher, Schwanke was named the 1995 NEC Rookie of the Year as well as the 1998 NEC Pitcher of the Year. Also in 1998, she was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the NEC Tournament after guiding the Colonials to the championship. A native of Claymont, Del., Schwanke ranks second in the RMU record book for career strikeouts (688) and shutouts (26) and places third for career games (113), starts (93), innings pitched (659), complete games (89), wins (56) and earned run average (1.93). Her four career no-hitters currently tie her for first with RMU Athletics Hall of Famer Tera Prosser. One of four Colonials to strike out 200 batters in a season, Schwanke owns the single-season strikeout record of 280, set during the 1998 campaign. She is the only Colonial to post double-digit shutouts in a single season, recording 10 in both 1997 and 1998. Schwanke is married to Nate List, and the pair have three kids.
