2017 - 2018 Oliver Ames Swim and Dive Leadership Team
Aprille Gangi, Captain, Senior 2019
Drew Cheng, Captain, Senior 2019
Ever since Drew was 7, he was fascinated by the stories of his two older sisters and brother on the swim team. Inspired by these tales, Drew got the chance to swim competitively himself at the Easton YMCA swim team a couple of years later. In his freshman year, Drew knew he wanted to follow his sibling’s footsteps and joined the OA swim and dive team, quickly finding breastroke to be his favorite event. Most of all, Drew loves the energy, determination and camaraderie of the team from swimmers and divers alike. As a captain, Drew strives to make as much a difference on the pool deck as in the water, cheering and supporting any and all of his teammates and guiding new swimmers to learn and have fun!

Justin Vega-Lopez, Captain, Senior 2019
Morgan O'Hara, Captain, Junior 2019
Cam Bourne, Captain, Senior 2018
Cam was a gymnast as a child and joined the dive team as a sophomore. He has been the Hockomock dive men’s champion sophomore and junior year. He loves pushing the body to it’s limits. Dive is a very mental sport and Cam hopes to encourage the dive team to overcome their fears. It is important in life to be ambitious and push oneself for a reward. In this case it is getting the satisfaction of perfectly slicing through the water after a dive. However, overall he is determined to bind the Oliver Ames Swim and Dive team family even closer together.
