Jacob Jennings '28 Recruiting Profile

As a military child, change is a huge part of my life; whether it's changing schools, changing friends, changing homes, or even changing countries.  However, one thing that has never changed is my love of swimming. Over the course of my life I have swam in Hawaii, Washington, Italy, New Hampshire, Bahrain, Florida, and Spain. Regardless of where I have lived in the world, swimming has always been there for me and through it I have formed some of my closest friendships. My love for this sport is deeply rooted in my intense competitive spirit, constant drive for self-improvement, and dream of representing the US at the Olympic Games. Throughout my career, I have had the incredible opportunity to learn from countless coaches and teams, which has exposed me to a diverse collection of personalities and coaching styles. There was even a time, leading up to Speedo Sectionals, that I was forced to train alone when a coach wasn't available. My hard work produced the top 800 and 1500 swims by a 14-year-old at that meet. Adaptability, coachability, and motivation are the biggest reasons why you want me on your team and together we will succeed.
