Sophia Rooks '19 Recruiting Profile

I have been rowing since the 7th grade and I very much enjoy every aspect of the sport.  I enjoy the challenge of working hard to do my best with my schoolwork and overall course of study.  I am a member of the School of the Arts for Literary Arts and am part of my school's Scholastic Bowl.  I spend the summer volunteering at a local hospital where I've been able to shadow physical therapists and other members of the healthcare profession.  I hope to go into the field of physical or occupational therapy and I believe continuing to work hard in school is the best way for me to achieve that goal.  I would like to row on a competitive rowing program.  I view success in rowing at the collegiate level for me would involve being a valued member of a team of hard working people that stick together and support each other.  What I enjoy most about the sport is putting in hard work and experiencing the results that come from it.
