Peter Silipino '27 Recruiting Profile

I have been swimming competitively since I was 8. My dream is to swim in the Olympics and cannot wait to swim at the collegiate level. I have enjoyed dedicating my life to the sport and trying new things. I am most proud of my state champ qualifying races and have begun focusing on distance events. My favorite event is the 1500/1650 freestyle and I enjoy swimming an ocean mile every September with Meters for Mike to raise funds for various traumatic brain injury charities. I am a strong advocate for NJ swimming and am an athlete representative for NJ Swimming LSC. 

Outside of swimming, I am in the school band, playing percussion. I also participate, each summer, in the Mercer County College Jazz Institute. I actively participate with the school robotics team, as the team President and I am the Vice President of the TSA club. In the spring of 2024, our school competed, for the first time, in the TSA VEX robotics competition. I was the main builder and driver of the robot throughout the school year and am proud of our achievement. I am looking forward to competing again this year and taking on more of a leadership position.

I am an organized individual, staying on top of my studies, club obligations, and swim practices. I work hard in and out of the pool, striving to meet my goals. I value a welcoming team atmosphere with a structured coaching staff that is supportive and encouraging. I look forward to swimming in college where I will bring a supportive attitude, positive work ethic, and goal driven determination to succeed.
