Sawicki played in all 33 matches and 116 games and led the Yellow Jackets and was second in the OAC with 377 kills. She also was second in hitting percentage at .256 and total blocks with 34 and had eight set assists and 79 defensive digs. As a freshman at Marietta, Sawicki was an honorable mention All-OAC pick.
