Parents: Tiffany & Eric Swanis

Birthday: May 27, 2006

2025: Swanis made her presence known on the defensive end this year for the Lions featuring in 16 games, starting in 7. Swanis manged to end the season with no cards to her name, only a strong defensive presence to show. Swanis played a total of 788 minutes this season as a Sophomore with glimpses of further potential as her collegiate career continues. 

2024: Swanis made an immediate impact in the program, starting and playing in all 15 games for the Lions.  As a freshman, she led the team in minutes played at 1,329 and played the full 90 in 13 games, including her first seven contests. The defender helped lead a Vanguard side that held opponents to one or fewer goals in 11 of 15 matches. Swanis played good, clean defense, only picking up seven fouls and one caution. She had a few moments offensively, taking four shots including two at home versus Redlands. 


What would you give a TedTalk on, even if no one asked for it?
I would give a TedTalk on retail therapy even if no one asked for it.

If your major were a reality TV show, what would it be called?
I think it would be something like “Athletes who won’t let sports go” because a lot of people in my major are athletes and want to work with athletes or in physical therapy in the future.

What is the dumbest way you have gotten hurt?
I was fighting over a hula hoop in pre-school with this little girl and she let go so I flew back in the concrete and cracked my head open. I got the hula hoop though so, no regrets.

What show did you binge-watch most recently?
I binge-watched Love Island recently!
