Jacob Furlong '18 Recruiting Profile

I am a serious student and a serious athlete. My goals are: first, to be at the top of my class academically, and second, to help my swim team reach new levels of success. I thrive on intense competition in the pool and work diligently to improve at every practice and every meet.

I believe that it’s my responsibility to be a role model and leader both in the classroom and at the pool. I have high expectations for myself and hold myself accountable to my teachers, coaches, and peers. I pride myself in being known as someone who does the right thing and encourage those around me to do the same.

I am interested in a future career in math or the sciences and I am looking for a college that has coaches and faculty that will support my goals both in the classroom and in the pool. I have no particular preference in geographic location, rather, I am looking for the best possible fit.
