Jacob DiBattista
“I started playing lacrosse in 7th grade for the Interboro Young Bucs, where I played mostly Midfield and Attack. I also played football, starting in the 5th grade, for St. Gabriel’s CYO where I played safety and wide receiver. Once I got to Archmere, I decided to continue both sports, earning a total of 6 Varsity letters and All-Conference recognition. During the summer, I played Club Lacrosse for the Headstrong Quakers, run by the University of Penn’s lacrosse program, and also participated in the Under Armour All American tryouts, and was invited to play in the NXT showcase. I’ve decided to continue playing lacrosse at Elizabethtown College where I will study Business Management. I would like to thank my family, friends, and coaches; I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them.”
Dominic Cipriano
“I have played football and lacrosse since the 5th grade. I started playing football at St. Mary Magdalen (DE) playing Tight End, Cornerback, and Wide Receiver. With regards to lacrosse, I initially played at St. Edmond’s Academy in the positions of Midfield, Defense, and occasionally Goalie. While attending Archmere, I received 7 varsity letters; 1 in Wrestling, 2 in Football, and 4 in Lacrosse. I received All-Conference for both football and lacrosse. I will continue my academic and athletic careers in football and lacrosse at John Carroll University. I would like to thank my family, friends, teammates, and coaches for helping me get this far.”

Sydney Yanick
"I began playing lacrosse at the age of 8 with the Wilmington Wings and continued to play in middle school for the Independence School. In fifth grade, I joined the Phantastix Club Lacrosse team out of Radnor and remained a member of this team throughout high school. While at Archmere Academy, I played at the varsity level for all four years and was chosen as a Varsity captain for the last two years. In my junior year, I was named 1st team All State Midfield and achieved my 100th goal milestone. I was also selected to compete in the Brine National All American Tournament (PA team) and was selected as a member of the Brine All Star team in 2015. Aside from lacrosse, I have participated in Cross Country and Basketball for all 4 years at Archmere. I am excited to join the class of 2022 at Trinity College (Hartford, CT) and the Trinity Women’s Lacrosse program."

Grace Dignazio
"I began tennis lessons when I was about eight, and I always enjoyed participating in summer camps and playing in clinics with my friends. As I got older, tennis became very important to me, and I continued my training at a more serious level at a junior training center in Philadelphia. I currently play about four or five times a week, and I am very excited to join Swarthmore's team in the fall and to continue pursuing tennis at a collegiate level."
