Personal Statement
My name is Danielle DeCarlo and I am a senior at Whitesboro High School. What makes me stand out from other recruits is that I am a student of the sport of swimming and I am constantly looking for ways to improve. I truly enjoy pushing myself both academically and athletically, because I recognize that both will help me to succeed in life. Whether it be on my club team or on my varsity team, in the pool or in the weight room, I also aspire to be a leader and a true friend. Encouraging my friends during tough practices and then seeing them thriving at meets really makes me feel empowered and happy for the team as a whole. After all, swimming is not just about improving your times or winning a meet, it is about the team environment, the long lasting friendships, and countless life lessons.
Thank you for taking the time to read my personal statement.
