SYDNEY BROUWER
A freshman on the Long Beach City College swim team, Sydney made a big splash in the Vikings’ third South Coast Conference meet against Pasadena and Rio Hondo. First, she swam the breaststroke leg on her school’s winning 200-yard medley relay. Then, after taking first place in the shortest event, the 50-yard freestyle, she won the longest event, the 500-yard freestyle. Showing her proficiency in every stroke, she capped off the day with another first place effort in the 200-yard individual medley. In the fall, she recorded 17 goals and 17 assists on the water polo team. Sydney also won City Section titles in both sports at Palisades High. She is a California State Parks lifeguard and her older brother Kian swims for UCSB. To nominate your favorite Palisadian for Athlete of the Week, email sports@palipost.com.
