Carly Yasko, a current high school senior from Newport Beach, California, has committed to swim for Division I Columbia University. Yasko will graduate from Newport Harbor High School in spring 2020 and join the Lions’ class of 2024.

From the location, unparalleled academics, welcoming team and supportive coaches, I knew it was the perfect fit for me the moment I stepped on campus. I cannot thank my family, friends, and coaches enough for helping me get here. Go Lions!!”
