Anakin Fischer '24 Recruiting Profile

Since I first got in the pool, I have wanted to be a college athlete. From my first race at 6 years old, I have focused every day on improving in the sport to make that dream come true. One thing about me as a swimmer is that I am versatile across several races. While I am very strong in long-distance, I have a constantly improving 200 freestyle that makes me an exceptional 800 free relay swimmer.  I also maintain impressive times in my breaststroke events, helping to round out my lineup. I push myself to my limits, always searching for a new way to improve. I want to be in an environment where I can compete with my teammates and other schools to help me reach my highest potential. This doesn't just apply in the water, but in the classroom as well. I like challenging myself with several AP classes and am active in extracurricular activities. I hope to attend a college where I am able to continue this trend of strong academic performance. I am also not one to shy away from leadership and want to have leadership opportunities after high school. I was recently elected as the Wisconsin Swimming LSC Athlete Representative and will serve in this position for 2 years. This also means that I thrive on communication, and love talking with coaches about new strategies and techniques I can use in my races.
