I have been swimming for almost 10 years, and the first season I had, I fell in love with the sport. When I first started, I wasn't even close to one of the best swimmers on the team, but in the past couple years, I have dropped a lot of time. Not only do I believe that I am a good candidate athletically, but also academically. I have kept a 4.0 GPA for my first 2 years of high school, and I scored in the 91st percentile for my most recent PSAT.
