Makena Rasmussen '22 Recruiting Profile

Hi Coaches!

I started diving after having to retire from competitive gymnastics due to injuries (ended as a 13 year old JO level 9). Being a club gymnast for almost 10 years taught me how to work hard, push myself and stay not only physically, but mentally strong! I have good body awareness, excellent air sense and I love to flip and twist which is what brought me to diving. It was an easy transition for me. I immediately took to the sport and placed in the HS State Championships after only my second year of diving. My childhood dream was to join a D1 collegiate gymnastics team or even the Olympic team. That dream is still somewhat alive, but now as a competitive diver. I am a born athlete and a fierce competitor. It is in my blood and I believe I would be an asset to a college dive team as I set high standards for myself and work hard to attain my goals. Thank you for your consideration!
