Personal Statement
My name is Jillian Carter and I have been swimming for seven years. Swimming has become more than just simply a sport for me because it has proven to represent a huge part of my life. I am 5'5 and weigh 135 pounds. I was voted by my teammates to be the captain for the next 2010/2011 season because I take pride in being a leader and being an active team member. I am very enthusiastic and strongly value teamwork. I am looking to swim at a school that offers not only a competitive swimming environment, but also a team with people that share a passion for this sport. I set high goals for myself and this habit facilitates the growth of my hard work ethic. I hope to make an impact on whichever team that I join because I have many goals that I hope to accomplish in the near future.
