Elizabeth Lashway '21 Recruiting Profile

I have been swimming competitively for 8 years and from my first moment in the pool I knew this sport was something special. Swimming has been a huge part of my life and has given me a copious amount of opportunities that not many athletes get to experience. Swimming has taught me resilience, compassion and how to be mentally tough in the face of a challenge. I wouldn't be who I am without swimming and that's why I want to continue swimming in college. 

I am extremely committed to always  being the best version of myself both in and out of the pool. This is why I take training and practice very seriously. As of right now I do dry land and strength training twice a week. I am a sprint freestyler and backstroker so I am constantly trying to keep myself in the best shape possible.  

I am extremely hardworking and am willing to go above and beyond in order to be successful. Swimming has made an enormous impact on my life thus far and I can't wait to see how it enhances my college experience.
