Amanda Thompson '21 Recruiting Profile

After competing in power tumbling and trampoline for eight years, I decided to transition to diving. Although I have only been diving for a year and a half, I have made immense strides. After only a year, I managed to place third at districts and qualify for regionals for one meter. I have learned several dives in each direction and am continuing to expand my list and learn new dives. Although I have never competed three meter, I train it everyday and can do several dives on it. I believe that, although I have little experience, I can progress quickly and successfully because of my gymnastics background and ability to work hard. My goal in college is to be a well rounded athlete and student. I hope to perform with excellence through hard work and determination in both diving and my studies.
