Girls Swimming & Diving

2024-25 Season Review

Girls Swimming & Diving

After a slow start to the season, the girls swimming & diving team really turned it around to finish the season strong. So strong, in fact, that they finished 2nd at the Circle City Conference meet, an unexpected surprise, and they moved up two spots in sectionals to take 5th place with 14 individuals making it to the finals. Coach Cox R’07 said, “The fact that everyone bought into the team concept really well this year generates the most pride in me. They all had their own personal goals, but at the same time, saw where the individual goals fit into the big picture and how working to achieve them would help the team overall.”

Conference was truly memorable for the Royals. Senior captain Izabel Kuntz was the conference champion in the 500 Free, and she was also named All-Circle Conference in this event. Two senior divers, Lucia Spencer and Caroline Benson, both hit each of their 11 dives for the first time at the conference meet. This scored the Royals a lot of points for the team, narrowing the gap between the competition. Lucia found herself with All-Circle City Conference recognition from this. Sophomore Mia Voris also earned All-Circle City Conference in the 100 Free and 100 Breast. 

Recognition did not stop there for the Royals. Seniors Elizabeth McCoy, Claire and Mia Nettles were all named Academic All-State, and sophomore Clara Kazmierzak was named an Iron-Athlete. Izabel Kuntz was named the team MVP for the season. Not only was she a conference champion, but she also broke the school record for points scored in a season with 462.5 points. The previous record of 443.5 was held by Maggie Peats R’21. Elizabeth McCoy took home the Mental Attitude Award, Claire Nettles received the Leadership Award and Clara Kazmierzak was recognized with the Sportsmanship Award.
