2017 Highlights #3

2017 Highlights

Personal Statement

I would like to pursue a degree in biochemistry, chemistry, or engineering, and mathematics. I came to Saint Raphael Academy to focus on academics- even though they did not have a swim team. Because I love to swim and wanted to represent my school, I -along with the help of the athletic director-started the swim team here. This year we acquired a coach, and four additional swimmers.

I have just finished my fifth season of club and will continue to compete on this level until graduating in 2020. In addition to attending team practices/conditioning, I regularly do dryland training which has greatly improved my stroke technique and times, in a short amount of time! I am very dedicated in both the pool and classroom, and will continue working hard to improve in both. As a student athlete, I think I would be a great addition to your program as I find success in balancing the two!
