The Mount Saint Dominic Academy winter sports season is off to an exciting start, with each team gearing up for a competitive and rewarding season. From the pool to the court to the track, Mount athletes are ready to showcase their hard work and talent.
Swimming (CO-OP w/DePaul)
Mount swimming began the 2024-2025 season with a commanding 121-49 victory over Montclair Kimberley Academy on December 10th, followed by another big win, 101-69 over Livingston on December 12th. Coached by Head Coach Jane Sungurov, alongside Assistant Coaches Grace Riexinger and Taylor Waddleton, the swim team is a blend of strong returning talent and experienced leadership.
Last season, the Mount swim team finished with an impressive 8-3 overall record and a 2-2 standing in the Super Essex Conference American Division. Liwanag made headlines by winning the Essex County Championship in the 100 Butterfly, and this year, she is expected to continue making waves. Captains Kopp, Liwanag and Ashley Rohde ‘25 are instrumental in leading the team. Seniors Maeko Marapao, Caroline Rosiecki, and Elisabeth Rosiecki further bolster the roster with their veteran experience and commitment to excellence.
With a strong foundation and high aspirations, Mount Swim looks to make this season one to remember, backed by a roster filled with talent and the drive to surpass last year’s success.
