Personal Statement
Hello I am Paola Colon. I have finished my first high school season. I have done much this season, I varsity lettered as a freshman, got newcomer of the year and my medley relay team was 8 100ths of a second to breaking the school record. I went to the district meet and competed. My goals are to swim for college and make it big in breaststroke. I know I would be a good candidate for your team because I have potential, I fall down 100 times I get up 101 times. I am very good with academics my GPA is a 3.7 which I am trying to get up to a 4.0. I am somewhat different from other recruits because I can handle swimming and school at the same time without wanting to give up and quit. I am very dedicated to swimming and I put my heart into it. One thing that might make different from recruits is that one day practice was cancelled because of snow and it was before sectionals 3 days before and my mom drove me all the way 50 minutes to a pool so my coach could still coach me I do not take days off.
