Jaxon Kaster '20 Recruiting Profile

Hello,

My name is Jaxon Kaster, and I swim for the DSMY Marlins in Des Moines, Iowa.  I started swimming competitively when I was 10 years old and have really enjoyed swimming over the past 7 years.  I started swimming when I was looking for a sport to participate in.  I tried baseball, football and basketball, but none of them caught my eye as much as swimming did.  I really enjoyed the competitiveness of the sport along with the team aspect.

Swimming has helped me in many ways.  It has given me the chance to meet many new people and also the opportunity to experience new things.  During my time swimming, I have had the chance to swim for a number of teams and make many relationships with both teammates and coaches which will last a lifetime.

I also enjoy the sport of swimming because it gives me a chance to push myself both mentally and physically.  I also enjoy helping teammates whenever possible.

My goal is to get the Winter Jr. Nationals cuts in both the 100 and 200 fly before I graduate from high school.

In college, I plan to major in either Business Management or Sports Administration.  I am looking for a school where I can challenge myself not only in the swimming pool, but also in the classroom.
