April 2025: Senior Swimmer of the Month- Lauren Fanucchi

Lauren Fanucchi has been swimming for Alto for the past five years. From the beginning, Lauren brought focus, energy, and a strong work ethic to every practice and these qualities have made her a standout member of the team.

Lauren specializes in distance freestyle and the 200 meter butterfly, two of the most grueling and challenging events in swimming. Her commitment to consistent improvement has been evident not only in her racing but also in her daily approach to training.

This season, Lauren’s hard work culminated in a strong performance at the Spring Far Western Championships, where she dropped 12 seconds in her 500 freestyle, going from 5:09 to 4:57! A breakthrough like this doesn’t happen by accident. In fact, Lauren has attended over 90% of all practices since the season began, setting an example of commitment and perseverance for her teammates.

We are so proud of Lauren's accomplishments and excited to watch her continued growth. Congratulations, Lauren! Your hard work is paying off, and the best is yet to come!
