Career
Gregorka played NCAA women's water polo at Stanford University.
In June 2009, Gregorka was named to the USA water polo women's senior national team for the 2009 FINA World Championships.
Gregorka also made an appearance on ABC's Winter Wipeout, Season 4, Episode 1, where she won a $1,000 bonus for remaining on "The Ski Lift" the longest. She was eliminated in the third challenge, "Seven Letter Word". She returned with past "Summer Wipeout" winner from Season 4, Episode 19, Sarah Cooper, as partners on Season 5, Episode 10. This was an episode for returning wipeout competitors, winners and losers, that team up together. Gregorka and Cooper, however, failed to complete the second challenge, "The Hangover", but both managed to walk away with $500 when Gregorka tagged the show's mascot, Smallsy, on the Big Balls.
