2022 SpotlightPersonal Statement
I started rowing as a freshman in the spring of 2021. I wanted to row because my fifth-grade gym teacher told me I would be good at it, and four years later I decided to try it. I was afraid to try something new, especially something so team oriented because I had been swimming all my life and it is a very solo sport. However, I fell in love with rowing. Not only was rowing something I was good at, but the team became a big part of my life. I love to row because it allows me to be the best version of myself, work hard, reach goals, and create lasting bonds and memories with people I care about. While being on a well-bonded team is important to me, I also value challenging work and striving to win. I think doing the best that you can is a win if getting first place comes with it, that‘s great and if it doesn’t it gives me one more thing to work for.
