- 2018 Highlights
Personal Statement
My name is Matthew Reynolds and I would love nothing more than to play water polo at a collegiate level. My top priorities are family, school, and to achieve my goals while having fun. It brings me an incredible amount of gratitude to have such an amazing family. My grandmother has survived cancer twice. The second time she was diagnosed I shaved my head in support of her chemo treatments. My grandfather is nothing short of an inspiration to me. He is 87 and continues to take pride in actively taking care of his 100 acre property. School is never an easy task, but I pride myself in always giving a 100 percent effort. I thoroughly enjoy learning new things and sharing them with my parents and my friends. Competing, whether it’s at at a high level of water polo, a friendly game of basketball, or a competitive game of backgammon with my family, brings me great joy. As an athlete in a team sport, I bring positive energy, a will to learn new things, and a drive to succeed. To be honest, what makes me stand out is my unparalleled intensity and ability to inspire my team with passion.
