2010-2011 Season Outlook In 2010, the Bruin swimmers had big time individual performances at NCAAs, helping the team to a 19th-place finish. This year, the bar is set high with the goal being a top 10 team finish at NCAAs. With a strong nucleus of returning student-athletes and the addition of a very talented freshman class, the Bruins will be looking for big results in 2010-2011. With captains Lauren Hall, Dani Milligan, Sam Vanden Berge and Laura Winn leading the way, the UCLA swimming and diving team will be looking to make some noise in the conference and national scene. SWIM OUTLOOK Sprint Freestyle Returners Emily Andelson, Madison Fitzgerald, and Emma Drysdale are joined by four great freshmen;Ting Quah, Kathryn Murphy, Cynthia Fascella and Jesse Bergman. Ting is a two-time Olympian for Singapore in the 200 free and 400 IM, Murphy is Junior National team member and Irish National record-holder in the 50 free, while Fascella and Bergman were National qualifiers. With an abundance of sprinters, the Bruins will be primed for success in the relays, which is key to moving up team places at the NCAA Championship. Middle and Distance Freestyle Seniors Sam Vanden Berge and Alex Sullivan lead the way in this group as both are coming off of stellar junior campaigns in which Vanden Berge placed 13th in the 1650 at the NCAA Championships to earn All-America honors. She had a great summer as well and is looking to carry on that success this season. Sullivan broke the school record in the 200 free and will look to lower that mark while securing a spot at NCAAs. She also holds the second fastest time on the team in the 500 free. Also adding depth are Yasi Jahanshahi, Dani Milligan, Briana Meyers,Rachel Godfred and Kelsey Hall. Jahanshahi was a scorer in the 500 free at Pac-10s, while Milligan has just narrowly missed the last two NCAA meets in the 1650 free and 400 IM. Meyers had a great summer and will compete more in the 1650 free. Godfred had a great swim at Pac-10s, becoming a surprise scorer in the 1650 at the conference meet. Kelsey Hall also adds depth in this group from 200 yards and up. Newcomer Ting Quah will be a huge contributor in the 200 free as she posted a 1:59 (lcm) at the 2008 Olympics. Coupled with versatile frosh Lauren Baker, both women should be significant contributors in the freestyle events. Backstroke Sophomore Laurence Delisle leads the way after a solid freshman year in which she broke the frosh record in the 200 back. Andrea Reigel also returns after a great summer nationals. National qualifiers Emily Andelson and Carly Lyons also, both National qualifiers, add depth in the backstroke. Junior Annie Stefanec is coming back from a back injury she suffered in early 2010, and has made significant progress to return to last season’s form. Newcomers Anna Senko and Jesse Bergman should make an immediate impact as both were national qualifiers in the backstroke events. Hayley Hacker is dropping her best times by seconds and should also add depth in the event. Breaststroke School record-holder Brittany Beauchan leads the way for this group after a banner junior year in which she earned All-America honors in the 100 and 200 breast. Senior Lauren Hall is a top contributor in the breaststroke events having qualifying times in the event. Junior Kelsey Louden, who had major time drops last season, also returns after a great summer and has already showed she is ready to qualify for NCAAs. Paige Treleven, who had to sit out last season due to health issues, is back and swimming faster than ever. Lindsey Buchbinder also is back for her senior year after returning from several injuries. Newcomer Emily Weir, primarily a 100 breast specialist was a YMCA national champion, and is extremely talented as well. Butterfly The butterfly group is the deepest on the team as it is led by junior school record-holder Bianca Casciari, a 2010 All-American who was seventh at NCAAs last season. Junior Yasi Jahanshahi also returns and is already posting fast times in the pool and is looking to be an NCAA scorer this year. Lauren Hall has shown her skills in the 200 fly throughout her career. Much improved and better than ever are Stephanie Christofferson, Karoline Sanderud and Isabel Williams. Freshman Kylie Garcia is the fastest 50 flyer on the team, while newcomer Lauren Baker will add depth in the 200 fly.

2010-2011 UCLA Swimming & Diving
IM Versatile Lauren Hall, the school record-holder in both the 200 and 400 IM leads the way. Hall, a consolation finalist at NCAAs in the 400 IM last season, is better than ever and ready to finish her career at the top. Bianca Casciari, Laurence Delisle and Karoline Sanderud also bring fast swims to the IM group. Both Casciari and Delisle competed in this event at NCAAs last year, with Casciari just missing a scoring place at NCAAs. The two women are looking forward to making their mark at NCAAs this season. Karoline Sanderud set the freshman record in the 400 IM last year and continues to improve every week in the pool. Dani Milligan is also a versatile member of the team who will add depth in the 400 IM. Relays This year’s relay squads are poised to be the crucial key to UCLA’s success at NCAAs. The team could see four freshmen competing on the 200 free relay this season. There are so many talented swimmers to choose from to make the 200 and 400 free relays including freshmen Ting Quah, Kathryn Murphy, Cynthia Fascella and Jesse Bergman, along with returners Emily Andelson, Madison Fitzgerald, Laurence Delisle and Lauren Hall that it will be a battle to see who makes the cut. The 800 free relay was solid last year, but even better this season when you join Quah with Alex Sullivan, Lauren Hall, Bianca Casciari, Sam Vanden Berge and Laurence Delisle.The medley relays could see some shuffling as the Bruins will look to see who can step up into the backstroke spot. The butterfly spot has plenty of talent to choose from and could see a number of the women take their turns competing in the relay. The goal this year is to score all five relays at NCAAs. With the relay success comes UCLA’s movement back up into the top 10 at nationals. Go Bruins!! DIVE OUTLOOK Last season, a small squad of four divers competed for the Bruins. This year, all four of those athletes are back and ready to continue where they left off last year. Leading the way are seniors Laura Winn and Karina Silva who will be wrapping up their Bruin careers this season. Sophomores Michelle Vale and Maggy Boyd return to the team after a strong first year of competition for the blue and gold. Joining this foursome are two freshmen, Haley McNamara and Paulina Guzman. “We’ve got four returning kids, which is a big thing,” said dive coach Tom Stebbins. “With those returning four and the addition of Haley and Paulina, we will have the depth we were lacking last season.” Laura is the diving team captain this year and will lead the Bruins in and out of the pool. She had a great summer in 2010 and although her results at U.S. Nationals were a little disappointing, they were not representative of how much she has improved. After narrowly missing the Pac-10 title on tower two seasons ago, Winn will be looking to go out on top in her senior year. Karina went home during the summer to train with her national team (Spain). She had a good showing at the National meet, but struggled after that. The Bruins are hopeful they can get her to return to where she was prior to the summer competitions and really be a factor for UCLA in 2011. Laura and Karina will carry a large part of the load and will be the duo this team will look to throughout the year to lead them. Maggy took the summer off to recover from severe shin splints and is just now getting back to training fully. Michelle had a great summer, qualifying to Senior Nationals for the first time on 3M. Like Laura she did not dive well at Nationals, but was still solid and gained valuable competition experience. She’s been hampered by a back injury for most of pre-season, but once healthy should progress with her dive lists. Michelle’s strides last summer show she’s capable of so much more and Stebbins will work on increasing her DD throughout the year. Newcomer Haley McNamara hails from Mission Viejo (where former Bruin and All-American Tess Schofield competed) and has been a pleasant surprise since arriving on campus. She has done a great job for the Bruins so far and the team will be looking forward to see her results during the year. Paulina Guzman has struggled with a back injury as of late, but once healthy, should be very good for the Bruins. Prior to her being injured, Coach Stebbins felt that Paulina reminded him of All-American Marisa Samaniego. Stebbins expects both the freshmen to be competitive in the conference and add the depth to the team that it had been lacking last year.
Head Coach
CYNDI GALLAGHER Head Coach :: 23rd Season :: UCLA ‘83 Cyndi Gallagher, one of the top college coaches in America, enters her 23rd season as head coach of the UCLA Bruins this fall, having compiled an impressive won-loss record of 133-71-1. An intrinsic part of the UCLA athletic department for the past 30 years as a student-athlete, assistant coach and head coach, her dedication to UCLA swimming and diving and to her former and current athletes is unparalleled. A 1983 graduate of UCLA, Gallagher had an illustrious career both as a school record holder for the Bruins and as a USA National Team member. Representing the U.S.A. National Team in Europe, Japan and Australia, she competed at the Olympic Trials in 1976 and 1980 and was a bronze medalist in the 800-meter Freestyle at the 1979 World University Games in Mexico City. For The Record Gallagher is one of the few coaches in the nation who coaches at her alma mater. A highly successful student-athlete for UCLA, she garnered All-American honors, set several school records and earned recognition as the university’s “Most Valuable Athlete.” As a coach, she has attained an even higher level, coaching Olympians, Olympic medalists, NCAA and USA national champions and national team members. Over the years, Gallagher has compiled an enviable record of success. In ten of her 22 years at the helm of UCLA women’s swimming, her Bruins have finished among the nation’s top ten teams. They’ve been among the top 15 teams in Gallagher Quick Facts fifteen of those years. In 2009, Gallagher’s recruiting class was ranked third-best in the nation. High Expectations • Coached 2008 Beijing Olympians Kim Vandenberg (bronze medalist in 800 free relay), Nicolette Teo Gallagher and her first-rate coaching staff have high expectations of their athletes, both in and out of the pool. These and Amanda Beard expectations, in turn, attract elite, intelligent, dedicated, goal-oriented and well-rounded student-athletes. Known for her strong work ethic and positive attitude, Gallagher leads by example. She inspires her athletes to believe • 2007 World University Games Head Coach and in themselves and to follow their dreams, teaching them to be attentive to detail and to find a way to improve their Assistant Coach for Japan International Grand swimming at every practice session. Gallagher also understands the importance of enjoying swimming and competing, Prix and to embrace the process of becoming a great athlete. Part of being a successful collegiate athlete is learning how • Led UCLA to two Pac-10 team titles (2001, 2003) to balance all the requirements of being a student-athlete. Part of being a successful person once outside of the swimming world, is learning to do the same. Gallagher believes you can achieve anything you set your mind to, as long as • 2003 and 1990 Pac-10 Coach of the Year you have the preparation and perspective, and have confidence in your abilities. • Has coached 19 Pac-10 Champions She also believes that teamwork and team unity are essential elements for success, citing them as key ingredients in the • 2005, 1997 World University Games Assistant team’s Pac-10 championship seasons of 2001 and 2003. Coach Reaching Their Potential… • 1995 Assistant Coach of U.S. National Junior Team Producing Olympians is always among Gallagher’s highest priorities. In 1996, she became one of the first female coaches to place an athlete on the U.S. Olympic team when Annette Salmeen qualified for the Atlanta Games in two • Member Advisory Coaching Staff for 1996 events - the 200 Fly, which she won at the Olympic Trials, and the 800 Free Relay. Salmeen, who had already become Olympic Games Gallagher’s first national collegiate champion when she won the 200-yard Fly at the NCAAs, went on to win Olympic gold as a member of the triumphant USA 800-meter Freestyle Relay. Four years later, Gallagher placed another Bruin in the Olympics when Marilyn Chua, representing Malaysia, swam the 50-meter Free at the Sydney Games. In 2000 and 2004, the Bruins’ Malin Svahnstrom represented her native Sweden at the Games, swimming in the 800m Freestyle Relay both times and coming away with a silver medal. During the summer of 2008, Gallagher guided three athletes to Olympic teams - 2006 graduate Kim Vandenberg (competing for Team USA), 2009 graduate Nicolette Teo (competing for Singapore in her third Olympic Games) and four-time Olympic Amanda Beard (swimming for Team USA). Vandenberg won a bronze medal as a member of the 800 freestyle relay, while Beard and Teo competed in the breaststroke. In addition to the Olympics, Gallagher has also placed many UCLA swimmers on international teams, including the World Championships, Pan-Pacific Games, World University Games, Goodwill Games and the Pan-American Games. More than a dozen U.S. and foreign National A and B teams have also featured swimmers coached by Gallagher. All told, Gallagher has coached more than 60 All-Americans in her 21 years as head coach, and she has made her mark on national and international U.S. coaching staffs as well. She served on the advisory coaching staff for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and was selected as assistant coach at the 1997, 2001, 2005 and 2006 World University Games. She also served as assistant coach for the 1995 U.S. National Junior Team that competed in Paris, the 1994 U.S. National Distance Camp and the 1993 US Olympic Festival. All of that international coaching experience stood her in good stead when she was selected to serve as USA’s head coach at the 2007 World University Games and the assistant coach for the Japan International Grand Prix. During Gallagher’s tenure at UCLA, her swimmers have completely rewritten the school record book and 20 different Bruins have won at least one event at the Pac-10 Championships. But it’s not just the crème de la crème who thrive under Gallagher’s guidance. The NCAA qualifying standards are notoriously tough, but year after year Gallagher’s NCAA squads boast among the highest number of participants at the NCAA Championships. Gallagher is also proud of the composition of the team that qualifies for the NCAAs, a team that, more often than not, includes several “walk-ons” who have gone on to be NCAA All-Americans. Bethany Goodwin scored in the 100 Fly and Kristen Lewis was in both the 100 and 200 Fly. Also, Lewis was a semifi-finalist at the 2004 Olympic Trials in the 100 and 200 Fly and Goodwin went on to make several U.S. National teams and set a World University Games record while winning the 50 fly. …and in the Classroom Gallagher’s commitment to excellence in the classroom is shown in her student-athletes’ many academic achievements. Exhibit A, of course, is NCAA Champion and Olympic gold medalist Annette Salmeen, who was named a Rhodes Scholar – UCLA’s eighth-ever and first since 1973 - and also earned an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship. Even while she was working on advanced graduate work at Oxford, Salmeen stayed involved in swimming as an elected Athlete Representative for USA Swimming. During her magical senior year in 1996, Salmeen won two Pac-10 titles (100 and 200-yard fly) and was named UCLA Female Athlete of the Year and Alumni Association Outstanding Senior. She also

Head Coach received the NCAA Top VIII Award, presented to only eight NCAA student-athletes annually for excellence in academics and athletics. In addition, Salmeen was a NCAA Woman of the Year finalist. During her Bruin career, she was a two-time team MVP, named the team’s hardest worker on three occasions, voted most inspirational twice and graduated with UCLA records in 200 butterfly, 200 free and 500 free. Salmeen graduated from UCLA with honors in chemistry (3.94 GPA) in 1997 and earned her PhD in biochemistry at Oxford in 2001. She is currently conducting post doctoral research in molecular pharmacology at Stanford University Medical School. In October, 2006, Salmeen was inducted into the UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame Keiko Price, Brighed Dwyer, Katie Younglove and Kristen Lewis were also honored with coveted NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships. Katie Younglove was named a Verizon Academic All-American and numerous Bruins have received Pac-10 All-Academic recognition. It’s no accident that the Bruin swimmers are consistently represented on the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll. Gallagher’s ultimate goal in coaching is to have each athlete reach her full potential, both as an athlete and as a person. She is most proud of her former athletes for their accomplishments and contributions to society after graduating from UCLA. Gallagher’s swimmers have gone on to earn Masters degrees and PhD’s, and to become successful teachers, lawyers, scientists, doctors, engineers, businesswomen, ministers and mothers. The Last Decade... 2009-2010: The Bruins finished 19th at the NCAA Chamionships with one of the best meets for individual performances during Gallagher’s tenure as head coach. Brittany Beauchan was a double All-American performer in the breaststroke events, while Bianca Casciari (fly) and Sam Vanden Berge(1650 free) also earned honors along with the 400 medley relay and 800 free relay teams . Multiple school records fell in the pool behind a talented group swimmers ranging from freshmen to juniors. 2008-2009: The Bruins had a young team, but saw much success and improvement throughout the year. Several swimmers achieved marks on UCLA’s all-time top-eight, while Madeleine Stanton (100/200 back) and Lauren Hall (400 IM) set new school records. Numerous NCAA qualifying marks were achieved, but another unbelievably fast swim season saw only Stanton and Hall advance to the NCAA Championships. 2007-2008: Since it was an Olympic year, athletes with only an “A” qualifying standard advanced to the NCAA Championships, leaving many UCLA athletes behind. Despite the high standards, Gallagher had three swimmers compete at Nationals with Nicolette Teo earning All-American honors in the breaststroke. Anna Poteete broke the 50 and 100 freestyle records during the year as a young team represented UCLA throughout the season. Gallagher also had 11 athletes qualify for the U.S. Olympic Trials, while four qualified for International Trials. She coached three Beijing Olympians - Kim Vandenberg, who earned bronze with the 800 freestyle relay; Nicolette Teo, who competed for Singapore in the breaststroke; and Amanda Beard, who competed for Team Bruin in the breaststroke. 2006-2007: Katie Nelson won back-to-back 1650 Freestyle Pac-10 titles and culminated her career with a fifth-place All-American finish in the mile race at the NCAA Championships. Katie Arnold also had a fine finish to her career with a sixth-place finish in the 100 Back at Nationals. Nicolette Teo (100 Breast, 15th) and the 200 Medley Relay team of Arnold, Teo, Amy Thurman and Anna Poteete earned All-American honors with their 14th-place finish at NCAA’s as the Bruins finished 15th overall. 2005-2006: Led by 16-time All-American Kim Vandenberg, the Bruins finished second at the Pac-10 Championships, their highest finish since the 2003-04 season. Vandenberg was the NCAA runner-up in the 200 Fly, and placed eighth in the 100 Fly at NCAAs. Katie Nelson, who finished eighth in the 1650 Free at the NCAA Championships, cruised to the Pac-10 title in that event by a margin of nearly eight seconds. During the dual meet season, UCLA posted a record of 7-3 (3-3 Pac-10), losing just one meet at home. Vandenberg blossomed in the summer of 2006, winningthe 200-meter Butterfly at the U.S. National Championships, and chopping nearly two seconds off her previous lifetime best with a brilliant 2:08.51. The performance, which ranked her first in the U.S. and sixth in the world for 2006, placed Vandenberg on the U.S. National A Team and earned her a spot on the USA’s PanPacific team, as well as a berth on the U.S. roster for the 2007 FINA World Championships. During the spring and summer, alumnae Kim Vandenberg earned a silver medal in the 200 Fly at the FINA World Championships in Sydney Australia. Her time of 2:06.87 ranked second in the world behind world record-holder Jessica Schipper of Australia. She will continue to train for the 2008 Beijing Olympics with Gallagher. 2004-2005: The 2005 season produced another strong campaign for the Bruins, with six women garnering All-American honors: Katie Arnold, Katie Nelson, Eileen Seissen, Nicolette Teo, Amy Thurman and Kim Vandenberg. Vandenberg and Arnold both finished in the top-8 at NCAAs, with Vandenberg placing third in the 200-yard Butterfly (1:55.08) and Arnold finishing eighth in the 100 Backstroke (54.30). Vandenberg also qualified for the World University Games, where Gallagher was chosen to serve as an Assistant Coach for Team USA. At the Games, held in Izmir, Turkey, Vandenberg gave Olympic champion and world record-holder Otylia Jedrzejczak of Poland all she could handle in the 200 Fly. Vandenberg battled the Pole stroke-for-stroke through 200 meters, placing a very close second to the world champion in a lifetime-best 2:10.40.

2003-2004: Coach Gallagher’s Bruins enjoyed another successful campaign in 2004 as six of the team’s 10 seniors qualified for the NCAA Championships - Leslie Hovsepian, Kristen Lewis, Jackie Lobdell, Sara Platzer, Malin Svahnstrom, and Naoko Watanabe. In all, 10 athletes earned All-American honors, 13 qualified for the NCAAs and 10 qualified for the U.S. Olympic Trials. UCLA finished second at the Pac-10s, just behind Stanford. In the Olympic year of 2004, the NCAAs were swum in a 25-meter pool while most meets, including the Pac-10 Championships, utilized a 25-yard facility. With double the opportunity to set records and the added incentive of making the Olympic Trials cuts, the Bruins virtually rewrote the school record book: School records in 11 individual events and seven relays bit the dust. Ten of those marks were broken at the NCAA Championships, where the Bruins finished seventh overall. During the summer of 2004, UCLA qualified 10 athletes for the U.S. Olympic Trials and sent Malin Svahnstrom to Athens representing her native Sweden. That summer also saw junior Kim Vandenberg become UCLA’s first U.S. national champion since Annette Salmeen in 1996, when she won the 200-meter Butterfly, the same event Salmeen had won eight years earlier. 2002-2003: The next year produced an impressive, record-breaking season for the Bruins, as Coach Gallagher led UCLA to its second Pac-10 title in three years. It was only the third time that a school other than Stanford had captured the conference title. Arizona did it once, while Gallagher’s Bruins have pulled off the feat twice. Coach Gallagher received Pac-10 Coach of the Year honors, while freshman Kim Vandenberg was named the Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year. At the NCAA Championships, the Bruins set new school records in the 400 and 800 Free Relays and had nine All-Americans for the second consecutive year en route to an 11th-place finish. In international competition, Sara Platzer represented the United States at the World University Games in Daegu, South Korea. Competing in the second WUG of her career, Platzer placed fourth in the 50m Free in 25.97. At the FINA World Swimming Championships in Barcelona, Malin Svahnstrom swam the 200m IM and anchored Sweden’s sixth- place 800m Free Relay. 2001-2002: In 2002, the Bruins qualified 12 swimmers for the NCAA Championships, one of the largest squads at the meet. Nine of those women earned All-America honors as Sara Platzer, a five-event All-American that year, and Malin Svahnstrom, a four-event All-America, led the way. 2000-2001: In 2001, Coach Gallagher’s fired-up Bruins notched their first-ever Pac10 team title when they upset favored Stanford as well as perennial challengers Arizona, Cal and USC. That summer Bruin swimmers were successful on the international level as well, as Bethany Goodwin and Sara Platzer represented the United States at the World University Games in Beijing. Goodwin struck gold in the 50m Butterfly, setting a new Games record, as well as winning a silver medal in the 400m Medley Relay. Platzer just missed a medal by .01 in the 50m Freestyle, placing fourth. Gallagher was chosen to be on the coaching staff for the Games, but had to decline due to family commitments. Away from the Pool Coach Gallagher’s life away from the pool revolves around her family and friends. She has a 24-year-old daughter, Tori, a 2008 graduate of the University of Colorado in Boulder. Gallagher resides on the beautiful beach of Marina del Rey.
Head Coach “I have tremendous respect for Coach Wooden and have learned so much from him and his ‘Pyramid of Success,’” said UCLA head coach Cyndi Gallagher. “Every athlete on our team is given a ‘Pyramid of Success.’ We discuss, as a team, how each of the blocks can make us better athletes, better teammates and better people. Coach Wooden’s philosophy is an inspiration to us as we strive to be the best we can be.” Coach John Wooden (center) with 1996 U.S. Olympian and 2006 UCLA Hall of Fame inductee Annette Salmeen (left) and UCLA head coach Cyndi Gallagher (right).

TOM STEBBINS Diving Coach :: 13th Season :: Yale ‘96 Tom Stebbins enters his 13th season as the head coach of the UCLA women’s diving team, a program that has had much success since his tenure in Westwood began. Before coming to UCLA, Stebbins served as Head Coach at Fordham University, where he coached two-time senior national qualifier Paul Delo, who won two Atlantic-10 titles each on the one-meter and three-meter. Stebbins also helped coach Delo to an undefeated record in the 1996-97 season.

That summer, he helped Baghramian to a fourth-place finish at the U.S. Senior Zone D meet, which qualified her for her first U.S. Senior Nationals on three-meter. His first recruiting class included two Senior Nationals qualifiers: Regan Gosnell and Heidi Prosser. Coach Stebbins’ sophomore campaign was just as successful as his freshman season. He guided Gosnell to her third and fourth consecutive Senior National meet and her first Senior National semifinal. Just as in his first year, he recruited an exceptional group of divers, including a Junior Nationals finalist and a Senior Nationals qualifier. In his third season at UCLA, Stebbins helped coach the Bruins to the 2001 Team Pac-10 Championship. He guided senior Anne Baghramian to the NCAA Championships and a fourth-place finish on three-meter at the NCAA Zone E meet. Stebbins also coached Heidi Prosser and Regan Gosnell to the Senior National meet in the summer of 2001, where Gosnell finished in 12th place on the 10-meter platform. In 2002, Stebbins 4th season, for the first time during his tenure at UCLA, all of Stebbins’ divers qualified for the NCAA Zone Championships.At Zones, Heidi Prosser qualified for the NCAA Championships, where she placed 21st on the three-meter springboard. Stebbins’ fifth season at the Bruins’ helm, 2003, was very successful. For the second consecutive year, all of his divers qualified for the NCAA Zone Championships. There, senior Regan Gosnell placed fourth on the one-meter, fifth on three-meter and seventh on platform, qualifying for the NCAA Championships in all three events. At the NCAA Championships, Gosnell became Stebbins’ first All-American diver, earning All-America recognition on platform (eighth) and three-meter (15th). Three of Stebbins’ divers found success at the 2003 Summer Nationals: Gosnell placed seventh on the platform. Janine Strack competed on platform, where she placed 28th. Paige Thompson, diving in her first Senior Nationals, advanced to the semifinals of the threemeter, placing 16th, and the quarterfinals of the one-meter, where she took 15th. During the 2004 season, Stebbins coached sophomore Paige Thompson to an automatic berth at the NCAA Championships, where she finished 31st (3-meter) and 33rd (1-meter), respectively.

Dive Coach In the summer of 2004, Stebbins coached Thompson to a sixth-place finish on three meter and a seventh-place finish on one meter at the U.S. Senior National Championships, earning her a spot on the Senior National Diving Team. He also coached Amanda Blong and Janine Strack to a sixth-place finish on the synchronized three-meter springboard at the Senior National Championships. Also during the summer of ‘04, Stebbins led Regan Gosnell to a 15th place finish in the women’s 10-meter platform event at the United States Diving Olympic Trials, held in St. Louis. Gosnell was the first female diver ever to represent UCLA at the Olympic Trials. The 2004-05 season was another impressive year for the diving squad, as four divers qualified for the NCAA Zone E Championships and freshman Brittany Renfrow was named Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year. The Bruin divers had five Top-10 finishes at the Zone meet, highlighted by Paige Thompson’s seventh-place finish on the one-meter (520.55) and Amanda Blong’s ninth-place finish on the three-meter (456.75). At Pac10’s, the divers posted six more top-10 performances: Blong (4th, 1M); Thompson (8th, 1M and 9th, 3M); Renfrow (8th, 3M); and Janine Strack (9th, Platform and 10th, 1M). In the Spring of 2005, Renfrow showcased her enormous potential, placing 11th on the three-meter at the U.S. Open Championship in her first senior final as a Bruin. At the Senior National Championships, Renfrow placed sixth on the three-meter while Blong, co-captain in 2005-06, finished 13th and Thompson was 17th. Stebbins and the Bruin divers had another successful year in the 05-06 season highlighted by freshman Marisa Samaniego’s inclusion in the NCAA Championships. Samaniego earned Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year award (the second consecutive season a Bruin diver earned the honor) after an impressive first campaign at UCLA. Sara Clark and Tess Schofield were also named alternates for the NCAA Championships after a strong showing at the NCAA Zone E Championships. The group’s victory at the Pac-10 Diving Championships was the second in the program’s history (2001), helping swimming finish second in the overall championship and capped a very exciting NCAA season. The hot streak continued in the spring and summer as Tess Schofield placed 7th in the Platform event at the U.S. Open Championships in April. In August 2006, the Bruins were represented in four out of five events at the Senior National Championships. Amanda Blong and Sara Clark finishing third in the Three Meter Synchronized Springboard event highlighted the meet for the Bruins. Blong also finished 10th on One Meter, while Schofield finished 15th on Platform and Samaniego finished 17th on One Meter and 24th on Three Meter to help the Bruins to a ninth-place team finish at the meet. In the 2006-2007 season, the Bruin divers thrived with incredible success as Marisa Samaniego earned All-American honors on one-meter (sixth) and Tess Schofield notched honorable mention All-American honors with her 13th-place finish on tower. Sara Clark (13th on 3M) and Amanda Blong rounded out the group of four athletes who represented UCLA at the NCAA Championships.This was quite a feat for UCLA and put on display the depth and talent of this squad. Great things started happening early
last year as the Bruins went 2-3-4 on one meter and 2-3-4-6 on 3M at the Zone meet. Schofield was the NCAA Zone E tower champion, as well as the Pac-10 winner and was the Pac-10 Diver of the Month in December. During the summer of 2007, the divers were on point again as Schofield won the Senior Zone D platform title and was 15th at U.S. Nationals. Samaniego won the Senior Zone one-meter crown and finished seventh at U.S. nationals. During the 2007-2008 season, the Bruin divers continued their success as by Marisa Samaniego led the way, advancing to the NCAA Championships on 1M and 3M. She was the NCAA Zone E Champion on three-meter and tallied seven dual meet wins during the year.Tess Schofield won every invitational tower competition she was entered in and the Bruins saw much success and improvement from divers Brittany Hill, Shannon Pirozzi, Laura Winn and Morgan Erpenbeck. The 2008-2009 campaign was another great year for the dive squad as two student-athletes competed at NCAAs, earning All-America honorable mention honors (Marisa Samaniego/Tess Schofield). Sophomore Laura Winn had a huge year, narrowly missing the Pac-10 title on tower with a runner-up finish. Samaniego won the Pac-10 one-meter crown, was the NCAA Zone E champion on three-meter and tallied seven dual meet wins during the year. Schofield won every invitational platform event in which she entered and was the NCAA Zone E Champion on tower. The 2009-2010 season saw a small squad of four divers represent the Bruins. Karina Silva and Laura Winn led the way as all four competed at the NCAA Zone E Championships. Silva set a new school record on tower during the prelims at Pac-10s and ended up finishing second overall, while both her and Winn were finalists on tower at the Zone meet.The summer of 2010 saw Silva earn a bronze medal on 1M and a gold medal on platform in her Spanish National Championships, qualifying her to the European Championships. Winn qualified to her second Senior National Championship on tower where she finished 22nd overall and Michelle Vale made her debut at the Senior meet in the 3M synchro and 3M springboard events.

Getting To Know Brittany What has been your favorite memory during your time at UCLA? My favorite memory has to be doing a get-out swim of the 100 free long course during winter training… we all made it and promptly made our way to Headlines for a breakfast celebration. If you could do another sport at UCLA, what would it be? I would be honored to be a sprinter on the track team. Do you have a pre-meet ritual? If so, what is it? Coffee… Hot or iced, I need to drink it. What is your favorite song playing in your IPOD right now? These are all equally my favorite: ‘I’m Ready For You’-Drake, ‘Feelin Myself ’- Nipsey Hussle, ‘Get Big’- Dorrough, ‘Come Into My Room’- Mavado. Who is your hero? My parents, grandparents, and all my ancestors who struggled and fought to make it. What’s your favorite thing to eat? Pork and French Fries, so basically Puerto Rican and Chinese food.

What is your favorite thing to do away from the pool? I love to learn about new things… whether it is music, food, dance, whatever, I’m about being more connected to the cultures around me. What is something most people don’t know about you? I used to write on a fantasy message board about Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean and Eragon… my screen name was Elvengurl. Name a TV show you are embarrassed to watch. Keeping up with the Kardashians. What is your favorite movie? It varies from year to year. What website do you visit most often? Facebook. What is your favorite Coach Wooden quote? “Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It’s courage that counts” What does it mean to be a Bruin? To me, a Bruin enacts change. As a Bruin you receive much in terms of knowledge and ability. It is important to remember, to whom much is given, much is expected. A Bruin shares the gift, enacting change within their communities or in those of need.

Stumbleupon.com What is your favorite Coach Wooden quote? ‘Things turn out best for those who make the best of the way things turn out.’ What does it mean to be a Bruin? 1) Positive attitude. A Bruin is someone who finds the positive in failure because they see it as a portal of opportunity to do better. 2) Motivation.

A Bruin doesn’t know the word ego because they have humility laced through all of them. 4) Fearless courage. A Bruin possesses an ‘I have nothing to lose attitude.’ They understand that you never know how great you can be until you push the limits of life. No limits, no ceiling, just go for it. 5) Competitive greatness. A Bruin never stops competing.

Getting To Know Dani What has been your favorite memory during your time at UCLA? My favorite memory during my time at UCLA would definitely have to be swimming against USC my sophomore year. We got to the meet and it started pouring rain and hailing, obviously not the best conditions to swim against your cross-town rivals in! Each and every girl stepped up on the blocks and swam her heart out while the whole team cheered from the warm down pool and on deck. Our team was so fierce despite the crazy weather, and it made me feel so proud to be a part of the Bruin family. If you could do another sport at UCLA, what would it be? If I were not a part of the UCLA Swim and Dive Team (and if I was infinitely more coordinated) I would definitely be a UCLA Gymnast.The gymnasts just won the 2010 NCAA Championships, they train incredibly hard, and are extremely driven but they still find time to wear make-up, have cute ponytails, and bedazzle themselves in glitter! Do you have a pre-meet ritual? If so, what is it? In high school I started a pre-race ritual that has stuck throughout my years of swimming. I like to walk up to the block shake my arms, take a few deep breaths and pray. I find it to be the perfect way to get calm and ready to race. What is your favorite song playing in your IPOD right now? I could never pick just one favorite song, but the song that gets me most excited to hop in the pool and race is ‘Pursuit of Happiness’ by Kid Cudi. Who is your hero? John Wooden is my hero.The way that he strived to live his life in the image of God is something that I truly look up to. He looked to give each and every minute of his life purpose, drive, and passion and in doing so he became the one of the greatest coaches of all time. What’s your favorite thing to eat? My parents started taking me at age 3 to our local sushi spot, and I have them to thank for my love of food!

2010-2011 UCLA Swimming & Diving
What is your favorite thing to do away from the pool? Away from the pool my favorite thing to do is spend time with my family and friends. Hiking, watching movies, playing at the beach, going to nice dinners, shopping, you name it and I like to do it with my family and friends. What is something most people don’t know about you? Most people do not know that I got started swimming because I watched it on television during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. I was 8 and I begged my parents to put me on a swim team, something that they knew nothing about.Thirteen years later I’m still doing it and loving it! Name a TV show you are embarrassed to watch. I am embarrassed to say that I watch Say Yes to the Dress on TLC almost every morning after practice. What is your favorite movie? My favorite movie of all time is Pride and Prejudice, but I would read the book over watching the movie any day. What website do you visit most often? I would be lying if I didn’t say Facebook, but shopping websites like Hautelook.com and Ruelala.com take an easy second-place. What is your favorite Coach Wooden quote? Coach Wooden had so many amazing things to say but my favorite quote of his is, “It’s the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen”.This has proved to be such a helpful quote to me not just in the pool, but in all areas of my life. Coach Wooden taught me to take everything I do one step at time, and I’ve found that this helps me in my journey to become the best I am capable of becoming. What does it mean to be a Bruin? To me being a Bruin means being part of a family that is constantly striving to be the best that they are capable of each and every day.This family is filled with people that take pride in the fact that they are a part of UCLA, and they all fully live up to the statement that once you are a Bruin you are always a Bruin.

I like to make sure that I have a nice relaxing morning with a good breakfast and lots of coffee. What is your favorite song playing in your IPOD right now? ‘We No Speak Americano’ byYolanda Be Cool Who is your hero? My dad What’s your favorite thing to eat? Steak and potatoes What is your favorite thing to do away from the pool? Run around outside and play volleyball or throw around a football with my closest friends.

What is something most people don’t know about you? I was the Ugly Duckling in my first grade school play. Name a TV show you are embarrassed to watch. How it’s Made What is your favorite movie? Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls What website do you visit most often? Facebook What is your favorite Coach Wooden quote? “Make each day your masterpiece.” What does it mean to be a Bruin? Striving to be the best you can be while surrounded by a family who shares a similar goal for excellence and supports you in every step of the way.
