Colby Clark '15 Recruiting Profile

I have been researching men's swimming programs throughout the country and I feel that I would be a great fit for your team. I currently have a 3.998 GPA. I scored a 29 on my ACT (32/reading, 31/science, 27/math, and 26/English).   I am ranked 10/255 in my class. I have set some high goals for myself for the 2015 school year. In order to ensure that I reach these goals, in addition to my regular 15 hours of pool time and 5 dry land hours a week, I am traveling two hours two times a week to receive extra instruction from a distance/pacing coach. Some of the goals that I have set are in the 200 yd. free (1:44.80), 500 yd. free (4:45.89), and in the 1000 yd. free (10:00.00)

I began swimming for my club team (SUSA) when I was 10 years old. I swam for another USA club team for 3 years prior to joining SUSA. My club experience has taught me the value of hard work and attention to detail. I am a very dedicated and hard working student athlete. I was elected to serve as captain of my club team for the past two years and last year, respectively, for my high school team. I am also being expected to continue in these leadership roles for the 2014-2015 year.
