SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – Santa Barbara City College is graduating nine sophomores who are leaving an incredible impact on our aquatics program. 

Lily Carrick, Taylor Classen, Cate Daland, Kate Densmore, Addie Lane, Mary Leveroni, Maddie Myers, Erin Otsuki, and Sofia Paez collectively earned two team State Championships and two team state second places. 

They broke state records, SBCC program records, and accrued countless WSC and All-American honors. They are a part of the winningest 3C2A water polo season in history. Aside from these accolades, they have set a precedent for treating each other and competitors with respect. 

"This group will go down as one of the best cohorts in school history," says head coach Chuckie Roth. "They will do great things in life, and we are fortunate we had our time together."

"They are selfless, mature, and rise to meet every challenge," said assistant coach Paige Treloar-Ballard. "They have worked hard and had fun doing it. They will be missed, but their impact on this program will last a lifetime."

Among the many accomplishments of the group, these swimmers collected 10 3C2A All-American and seven NJCAA All-American honors.
