Samantha Bratley '25 Recruiting Profile

Dive List:

1 meter: 103C, 104C, 201B, 202D, 301B, 302C, 401B, 403C, 5121D, 5211D, 5221D

3 meter: Due to an injury that required surgery in the 22-23 school year, I have had limited practice with 3 meters and have not completed it. 

I have been diving since 7th grade, after leaving competitive gymnastics. Due to COVID-19, I was out of the pool for ~1.5 years until my freshman season in August of 2021. I am very grateful for the community and passion that diving has given me. Diving in college would be a great privilege, and I hope that I can continue to develop my skills and thrive at a new school. 

Outside of academics, I work hard to maintain my academics. I maintain a high GPA in honors and AP courses, and I love to challenge myself both academically and physically. I lead two clubs at my school and volunteer at mentorship and tutoring organizations. An important part of my life is contributing to my school and community through my work outside of the classroom.

I work hard to develop my skills, and I value the input from my coaches and listen to corrections. I have consistently improved over my last 3 high school seasons, and I hope that with the right school and coach, I can thrive both on and off the pool deck. 

My academics are very important to me, and I would like to focus on mechanical engineering and computer science in college. I am open to all colleges, and I would ultimately like to find the best college for me.
