Maddie Annis '19 Recruiting Profile

Hi! I am a swimmer looking to swim at the college level. I have been swimming year round since 2nd grade and I love it! As my mom always says, swimming fixes everything! When I'm having a bad day, getting in the pool is usually the best remedy. Swimming has taught me some of the most important lessons I've learned in life so far. From the perseverance needed to bounce back from injuries, to being coachable, to encouraging teammates and being part of a team, swimming has made me a better person outside the pool as well as in.

Aside from swimming I have many hobbies. I play both the piano and viola. I love spending time with my family and my dog. I volunteer with my church's Youth Group. My academics are very important to me and will be a large deciding factor in the college I choose. I am hoping to become a doctor or engineer one day.  Swimming in college is my ultimate swimming goal, and I am looking forward to making that happen!
