Franklin Manolio '14 Recruiting Profile

Out of my three years of my high school swimming career, I can truly say that my Junior year has been my absolute best!  My high school acquired a new coach and he was a major influence on me; a true inspiration to everyone who swam for Dobson.  I'm working hard  to finish my high school career with bang!  My personal goal is to place "top eight" in State in the one hundred free and top sixteen in the hundred breast stroke.  Hard work makes fast swimmers, but anything can be accomplished with a solid and encouraging coach and team that is supportive.  Nothing pumps me up more than having a whole team behind me screaming my name.  I desire to swim in college and study the medical field when I graduate.  I have no specific college preference whether it's in-state or out of state, I just want to swim.  There's no easy route to glory; you have to work hard and show your commitment and dedication to your sport no matter the obstacles.  Surrounding myself with a competetive and encouraging team can make all the difference.
