My name is Ben Butler, and I am currently a Junior at Terra Linda High School. I hope to continue my swim career at the Division 1 collegiate level and have been working hard towards that goal for the past couple of years. I am extremely dedicated to this sport and have seen drastic drops in my times over the past couple of years. Just this past year, I dropped two and a half seconds in my 100 free and six seconds in my 200 free. My main goal this year is to qualify for Junior Nationals in the winter. I love swimming fast and enjoy putting in 100% effort at practice. I set goals for myself and work hard to achieve them. I’m someone who enjoys learning new skills and fine-tuning my strokes, starts, turns and finishes. I plan to continue to improve my speed, stroke, turns, starts and finishes over the next couple of years so that I can swim at the Division 1 collegiate level. Thank you for your time and interest.
