Santa Catalina School held a signing ceremony February 17 for swimmers Damiera Cruz '20 and Claire Sullivan '20, who will both compete at college in the fall.
Damiera will compete in freestyle sprints for Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania. She was selected to the all-league team as a sophomore, and recently swam in the Speedo 2019 California/Nevada Sectionals, a national meet from USA Swimming.
Claire received a full-ride swimming scholarship to Malone University in Ohio, where she will compete in freestyle distance events. Claire is a three-time Central Coast Section qualifier in the 200 and 500 free, and she holds the school record in both events.
It's a good year for Catalina's senior athletes. Two softball players signed with Division I colleges this fall.
