I recently began rowing because I have a lot of friends who really enjoy rowing. The first time I saw a race I got chills. I was so impressed to see all eight rowers working as hard as they could for the benefit of the team. Rowing is truly a team sport and I find it extremely motivating to not only be working for myself, but for my team. I may be new to rowing, but I have a lot of potential due to my height and athletic ability. I am willing to put in the work to be the best rower I can be for myself and for my team. I am very interested in rowing in college and I am working as hard as I can to get there.
