Township swimmers dive into season
Dec. 1: The following is a look at how several of the township swim teams look this year. Nottingham info has not yet been received..
Hamilton Girls
Head Coach: Brittany Mannion
Assistant: John Costantino
Last Year: 1-11
Roster: Tamiris Alice de Azevedo (Sr., free), Brielle Blackshear (Fr., free), Elizabeth Biroc (Jr., free, back), Christine Carbone (Fr., free, breast), Renee Cass (So., free back), Alyson Courtney (Fr., free, back, IM), Carlie Kate Elmer (IM, fly), Emma Fritzinger (Jr., IM fly), Gabriella Griffith (Fr., free), Rachel Hampton (Jr., free breast), Nataly Hernandez (So., free back), Christina Kopec (Sr., free, breast), Megan Kudrick (Sr., free back), Sabrina Mennel (Sr., free breast), Shaylyn Novak (So., free, breast), Kellie Parker (Fr., free), Alexis Uram (Sr., free, back, fly), Abigail Wagner (So., free, fly), Dominique Wallace (Sr., free, fly), Sofi Walter (Fr., free, breast), Dana Woodward (Fr., free).
Mannion says: We are anticipating great things from the team this season. With returning swimmers, Alexis Uram, Megan Kudrick and Sabrina Mennel comes experience and leadership. Sofi Walter, Alyson Courtney and Christine Carbone prove to be solid newcomers to the team. With the strengths each swimmer provides we are looking to improve last year’s record.
Let’s start with: Hornets open Tuesday at Steinert.
Steinert Girls
Head coach: Jacquelyn Nami, 2nd season
Assistants: Georgia Balog, Barbara Hunt
Last year: 8-5
Captains: Julia Galayda, Natasha Kraemer, Christie Delhagen, Carly Hofmann
Top returnees: Sarah Diefenbach, Rebecca Wolf, Sara DeAngelo, Adrienne Barsoum.
Top Newcomers: Taylor Kwok, Carly Conti, Ciera Jones
Nami says: We're looking forward to a great season. The girls are excited and have been working hard. We're hoping to continue the success we had last year and have some qualifiers for states.
Let's start with: Steinert opens Tuesday by hosting Hamilton at 4 p.m.
Hamilton Boys
Head Coach: Dan Seeth, 1st year
Assistant: John Costantino
Roster: Maciej Bury (Fr., breast, back, relay), Matt Cartagena: (So., 100 back, 50 free, relays), Joe Clayton (Jr., free, breast, relays), Rich Clayton (Jr., free), Jose Colon, (Jr., IM, free, breast, relays), Will Craver (Jr., free, fly, back, relays), Nick Damiano Sr., fly, free, relay), Ivan Djoridjevic (So., back, free, relay), John Granaldi (Fr., free, relay), Zachary Hutton (Sr., free, fly, IM, relays), Adam Jackson (Fr., free, relays), Alex Jenkins (Jr., breast, free, relays), Joe Kelmer (Sr., IM, breast, free, relays), Alex Maevsky (Jr., free, breast, relays), Sam Markos (Fr., free, relays), John Matisa (Fr., free, breast, relays), Jake Poston (Jr., free, breast, fly, relays), Mark Rodriguez (Jr., fly, free, relays).
Seeth says: This season is a growing and building season for our team. With a small number of seniors and a large number of juniors and freshmen, we can concentrate on having depth and growing into a stronger future.
There is an extremely positive attitude from the swimmers, they are working hard at practice, and are filled with anticipation waiting for the meet season to begin. This year we can expect outstanding performances from the seasoned Zach Hutton in distance and stroke events. Jose Colon is returning from summer and fall training programs and is displaying good times in all strokes. Eyes should be kept on Will Craver, Alex Maevsky, and Mark Rodriguez who are all part of the large junior class and have accepted responsibility in deeper stroke and distance events. Rich and Joe Clayton are returning swimmers who look stronger than ever and will continue to achieve in the mid and distance free events.
Our rookie of the year last year, Matt Cartagena, has returned and should place very well this year. Along with the rest of the swimmers, this 18 member strong team has an enormous amount of potential that is guaranteed to surprise and turn many a head.
Let’s start with: Hornets open Tuesday at Steinert
Steinert Boys
Head coach: Kyle Schulke, 1st season
Last season: 6-7
Captains: Brian Sereni, Kevin Hom, Calvin Huang
Roster: Seniors: Ajon Brodie (free, breast), Brian Emerson (free, breast), Lucas Havens (free), Kevin Hom (distance), Calvin Huang (distance, back), Jordan Ikeda (free), Andre Maldonado (fly), Jeff Moore (free), Dominic Serenelli (sprints), Brian Sereni (back), Varun Singh (free); Juniors: Chris Bilziotis (fly), Chris Carr (free), Nick Chiavoni (free, fly), Paul Jones (free), Elias Nyktas fly), John Thomas (free), Jason Vergara (free); Sophomores: Nate Bourdeau (free), Chris Briscese (free), Matt Brown (free), Kevin Diefenbach (breast, IM), Kyle Gulsby (fly), Matt Jensen (back), Skylen (free), Julius Parungao (free), Pat Remboski (free, back), Derek Shearer (free), Frank Sun (free, breast), Freshmen: Hunter Dalton (free), Tyler Gulsby (free), Gary Liedtka-Bizuga (free, breast), Zach Mabin (breast), Billy Maloney (free), Ryan McHale (free), Tommy Wright (distance, fly).
Schulke says: I expect the boys team to have a break-out season. We only lost a few seniors last year and have added a couple key freshmen that will add to our depth. Zach Mabin has the potential to be one of the top breast strokers in the county. Tommy Wright should add depth to our fly and distance teams. Kevin Diefenbach has worked hard in the off season to improve his sprinting and IM abilities.
Dominic Serenelli, who just started swimming last season, has made great strides to become a top sprinter on the team. Brian Sereni is looking to end his high school swimming career with personal bests in backstroke and freestyle.
We’re led by Kevin Hom, who is one of the best all-around swimmers in the county. He specializes in distance, but possesses the ability to compete in almost any event. This looks to be an exciting season for the team.

Sunnybrae’s
sunny days
and Babe Ruth teams
keep township
in the sports spotlight
Whether it’s 11-year-old boys on the little league field in Paramus, pre-teen girls on the World Series diamond in Florida or teenage boys on the Babe Ruth diamond in West Windsor, Hamilton Township has a rooting interest.
While the majority of teams have played their last meaningful games this summer, three entries from the township are still bringing the bats and balls out to some of the biggest tournaments of the year.
Fish4Scores.com will attempt to continue to bring you the results and photos of these exciting events. However, myself and Ken Weingartner are both away on vacation starting Saturday and running through Friday.
So Ken will try and do his part from Lake George and I will do mine from Cape May. We apologize if results and pictures are posted a bit late, but rest assured they will get posted as soon as we can.
Anyway, here’s what’s in store the coming week.
* * *
First off, how about those Sunnybrae 11-year-old Little Leaguers!
Once the 12-year-old District 12 Tournament is over and the winner loses in the sectionals, little league baseball kind of takes a backseat as far as newspaper coverage goes. Sure, they’ll run the results if phoned in, but mostly Babe Ruth has taken center stage, or any 12-year-old team still alive (like Robbinsville softball).
But I, for one, am really happy for this group of Sunnybrae kids. What they did is pretty remarkable when you think about it.
For 52 years, the league has never won a sectional title, and now, boom! Here it is. From a team that nobody thought would even get out of pool play according to manager Greg Beyer.
Sunnybrae has lived in the shadows of Nottingham Little League forever, it seems. So has most of the rest of Mercer County, but when a league in your same town is always earning the glory, it’s kind of tough. It didn’t help that HTRBA has had its share of glory in recent years as well.
But this band of Sunnybrae 11s has put the league on the map during a season when Hamilton Township fell short of winning a district title in any other age group. Not only did Sunnybrae win a district, it has won Section 3.
The states start Saturday.
Good luck boys! Keep making us proud!
* * *
While there is a fresh face carrying the township banner is little league, a familiar group is doing likewise in softball.
The Hamilton Girls Softball Association 12-year-old team will be boarding a plan Thursday for Alachua, Fla., where it will begin pool play Saturday while making its third straight trip to the Babe Ruth World Series.
Provided the plane ride goes smoothly (according to manager Frank Bennett, four girls are making their first flight!), Hamilton will be the first team to play in the showcase as it has a 10 a.m. game with the Midwest Plains champion Saturday.
Hamilton also plays Sunday at 2 p.m., Monday at noon and Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. The top three finishers in each five-team pool will form a six-team, double elimination bracket starting Wednesday.
If history is any indicator, Hamilton should have a lengthy stay, as it won the national title in 2008 and finished third last year.
So, not to repeat myself but, good luck girls! Keep making us proud!
* * *
Finally, the Hamilton Babe Ruth 15-year-olds get underway in Mid-Atlantic Region play Thursday in West Windsor.
Hamilton is attempting to win the league’s first regional title since the Hamilton Nationals won it in 1971. Nottingham won it all in 2008.
The Switlik gang opens pool play at 4 p.m. against Frederick, Md. Hamilton wasn’t dominant in its first two rounds, as it finished second in District One, and again in the Southern New Jersey states.
But the slate is clean and one never knows what can happen once a new tournament begins.
So stop me if you’ve heard this one before but, good luck boys! Keep making us proud!
