Personal Statement
I am very passionate about swimming and have committed a lot of my time to it. I would like to further my career in the sport into the collegiate level. I primarily swim middle distance and long distance freestyle. My best events right now are the 200 and 500 free which I have achieved my best times in during high school season. I would like to swim at the collegiate level and feel I would be a good asset to college teams because I have a good work ethic and I'm very motivated. Now in my junior year of high school, I have managed to balanced many extracurricular activities, cross country, swimming, and track every year of high school. Figuring out how to balance all these things along with my school work has taught me to keep going and working hard at everything I do, even when it seems like I just can't manage it all. I am also very motivated as I grew up in a house that stressed the importance of always trying my best in grades, athletics, etc. I hope to maintain a high GPA in college and to keep improving in my swimming. I have always been a hard worker and I don't plan on that changing anytime soon!
