Christopher Vaglienty '17 Recruiting Profile

I'm wanting to become a student athlete because swimming is a passion I like to do it. truthfully I don't see myself going to the Olympics or anything like that, but anything is possible. I want to swim for college to stay in shape and better myself and my times. All in all going to college by itself is especially important to me, due to the fact that I would be the first one in my family to go to college. I have always been interested in the Engineering field more specifically in Petroleum and Mechanical Engineering. I have been swimming competitively since I was five with the same club team, SOCAL Aquatics Association. I have been their since the club had less then 100 swimmers to it growing to such a large amount, some swimmers can't join due to spacing. Before I used to just go through the motion with swimming until I was told multiple times by my coaches that I can have potential, thats when I started to take things a little more seriously. From then on my life has been school and swim, and I am thankful for it.
