Philip Sherwin '17 Recruiting Profile

My name is Philip Sherwin and I live in Bedford, New Hampshire.  I am 6'0"  and weigh 140 lbs.  I run on the cross country, indoor and outdoor track teams and am a captain for all three seasons this year.  I have run on these teams since freshman year and love the program.  I hope to be able to run both cross country and track in college.  Usually at practice I am one of the first ones to the track and the last one to leave the weight room.  Inn sophomore year I received the sportsmanship award for cross country and indoor track.  I recently earned my Eagle Scout rank and am an Assistant Senior Patrol Leader in my boy scout troop.  I have a 3.58 GPA and am taking multiple IB and honors level classes.  I would like to study foreign languages in college as well as physical sciences.  I have taken classes in Spanish for most of my life and the language interests me.  I also used to live in Arizona and had a Spanish speaking teacher at a very young age.  I am taking physics and chemistry this year and both classes are challenging and interesting for me.  A goal I have set for myself is to join the military after college whether I enlist, graduate with ROTC, or go to an academy.  While in college I hope to make a positive impact on the sports or club teams I join as well as in the community and on campus and will consider all academic and athletic opportunities offered to me.
