Hermona Yared '20 Recruiting Profile

My main goal for college is to get my degree in public health. I have always been fawn of medicine and I have found that public health could be a perfect fit for me. Besides my academic goals, I also want to continue my swimming career to a higher level. I have swum for longer than I can remember and it has become second nature.  I have swum for both club and high school and they are both so enjoyable. One of the great plusses of swimming is being able to meet great people and making new friendships. Although swimming is an individual sport, you are able to make great bonds with your teammates which I love. I have good sportsmanship and I am always there to support and motivate my teammates whether it is on the pool deck or not. At meets, I try to keep a fun attitude because I know how stressful it can be for swimmers, so I try my best to help and encourage my teammates to do their best without adding more pressure for them.

Personally, I am also good at taking constructive criticism and trying to do the best I can on making my times faster. I try to always stay positive and improve on my skills and times.
