Personal Statement
My name is Daniel, and I am currently in 11th Grade, working towards swimming at a college/University where I will be pushed to do well in academics and on a swim team. I have been swimming since I was about six years old, and until about two years ago, I didn't consider the possibility of swimming in college because it seemed so far away. I have now realized that this is a real opportunity that I can take in the future. As someone who has the drive to improve to the best of my ability, I make sure that I get as much as possible out of every practice, listening to and applying the coach's feedback. Whatever swim team I'm on, whether it be my Club, School or - in the future - university team, I will make sure that I am 100% committed to making the team perform well and simultaneously fostering a good team relationship.
