OCHS First Decade Teams
Renee Tomlin was top Raider girls swimmer in First Decade!

Girls swimming was a varsity sport at Ocean City High School for only the second
half of the First Decade, though many girls swam successfully on the boys team
before that.
The best of the decade was Renee Tomlin, who could pretty much swim successfully
in any event. Tomlin was picked here in the 50 freestyle and in all three relays.
The other freestyle swimmers were Colleen Smith, Kelsey Levering and Suzanne Mooney.
In the backstroke, the choice was Anesa DilBerovic. In the breaststroke it was Sam King.
The selection in the butterfly was Kelly McCarthy. The individual medley swimmer was
King. And the diver was Carly Sheppard.
Comprising the medley relay team were DilBerovic, King, Tomlin and Mooney. The 200
freestyle relay team was Tomlin, Mooney, King and Anna Ceniccola. And the 400 freestyle
relay team was Tomlin, King, Smith and Levering.
A new decade began on Jan. 1, 2010 so performances since then are not taken into
consideration for the First Decade winter sports teams. Swimmers were eligible to be
selected to this team in any event where they swam, even if it wasn't necessarily the
event in which they were most effective.
Renee Tomlin joins Jill Kozakowski (90s) and Mary Garrett (80s) as OCHS Girls Swimmers
of the Decade.
