Campo diver teaches English on the side

Campo Men s Varsity Diving Team senior Daniel Zabronsky Photo Vera Kochan With the lack of competition due to COVID restrictions, Moraga s Campolindo High School senior, Daniel Zabronsky, has been channeling his energy into teaching English to students in Colombia, South America. Zabronsky first began his serious foray into the world of water sports in the eighth grade (after years of recreational swimming with his friends), when he began competitive swimming at Sherman Swim School in Lafayette and the Moraga Country Club. After a while I thought that swimming was boring. I used to do flips on my trampoline, and after seeing the divers at Sherman I decided to try it. I liked to do the diving flips, and I spun fast and did good jumps. After lots of hard work, Zabronsky was moved up to the club s competitive team.
