Vasileios Karatzas '24 Recruiting Profile

During the pandemic it was hard to stay motivated because my local pool was shut down for a long time, but I quickly realized if I don't do something about it then I shouldn't expect to get better.  That's when I took the initiative and started doing home workouts and also making plans to try to go to different pools around the area that were open as much as I could to maintain a feel for the water.

Some of my goals I want to accomplish in the collegiate level is to be the best I can and compete at the highest level I can, while improving my leadership skills.  One goal I have outside of the pool, would be to focus on school, and make sure I get the degree I need to do the job that I want.   I think I would be a good addition to the team because I have a good team spirit, always support teammates and help them get better in practice, and of course I have a good sense of humor :)
