August 07, 2025 | Women's Swimming and Diving
PRINCETON N.J.- Princeton women's swimming & diving team has announced its incoming class of 2029. Head coach Abby Brethauer's squad finished the 2024-25 season ranked No. 25 nationally and completed the three-peat of the Ivy League Championship.
"We are eagerly looking forward to welcoming the Class of P'29 to campus in just a few weeks," Brethauer said. "While they are undoubtedly exceptional athletes who will make their mark in the pool through points scored and records broken, they are, more importantly, remarkable individuals with diverse talents and passions beyond the sport. We can't wait to see all they'll bring to the Princeton community over the next four years."
The class of 2029 includes Vivian Brennan, Delaney Herr, Chloe Kim, Natalie Mak, Katherine Sanders, Sophie Segerson, Savannah Skow, Sophia Sunwoo, and Sydney Willson who will aim to help the Tigers to a fourth consecutive Ivy League Championship title.
