Xander Tavares '22 Recruiting Profile

I'm a scholar athlete with nearly ten years of competitive swim experience. Achieving in both the classroom and the pool requires hard work and dedication, but also balance in life. At this time, I'm most interested in majoring in architectural or civil engineering, but am remaining open to other engineering fields as well. I've maintained a 95 average or higher throughout most of high school, taken a challenging curriculum including an engineering track and also band, where I play tenor saxophone.

I believe it's important to prioritize my education, swimming and physical fitness/nutrition, but also have time outdoors doing activities like biking, hiking, sailing, and snowboarding - and save some time for building friendships as well. I work extremely hard in practice, steadily work towards my swim goals, am a quiet leader of my peers, and I follow through with my commitments. 

I look forward to finding a college where I can swim Division III and continue being a well rounded student athlete.
