Personal Statement
Since I started swimming at 8, I have wanted to swim fast and win races. I am competitive and self motivated and have learned to push myself because I am in a small swim club with very few swimmers at my level. I want to swim for a college and help the team earn points in individual events and in relays.
One of the reasons I chose a small swim club is the understanding I get when I cannot be at practice because I have Scouts. I am working towards my Eagle rank now and it has not always been easy to balance swimming, Scouts and school, but I am doing it. I have gone to McQuaid Jesuit since sixth grade and have always worked hard and appreciate the education I am getting there. I plan to continue this work ethic in college, both in classes and in the pool.
I am dedicated to getting better and stronger and know I will be a good addition to any college swim team.
