2007-08 Outlook and History
2008-09 Outlook
The 2007-08 season was a very positive one with every swimmer achieving lifetime best times and each diver adding new and improving dives. The team finished sixth overall at the NEWMAC Championships with seven team members and five relays making finals and three team members earning spots on the All Conference team. Seniors Marly Pineda and Shanti Freitas led the way with Marly defending her title in the 200 fly and placing 6th in the mile and 7th in the 500. Shanti placed 2nd in both the 1 meter and 3 meter diving events. Smith First Year Athlete of the Year Lily Seidman along with classmates Lenora Walter, Reyna Levine and Alexis Roehrich; Christine Dzialo and Francesca Kotey all had great success at the championship making finals and setting the team up for success in 2008-09. Shanti competed in the NCAA Division III Nationals and placed 6th and 2nd in the 1 meter and 3 meter diving events respectively and earned All America status in both events to close our her illustraious career.
The Pioneers expect an outstanding 2008-9 season with fourteen returning team members plus a talented group of incoming swimmers and divers. With the talent and dedication of this group, the team expects to move up in the Conference standings, place more team members on the All Conference and All Academic teams and send 2-3 swimmers plus 1-2 divers to the NCAA National Championship.
