Kaylin Sylvester '11 Recruiting Profile

I've spent most of my life at a pool. Whether it has been for practicing, teaching swim lessons, helping coaches, or just having some fun. At practice, I challenge myself each day. I come to practice with a great attitude and try to encourage everyone else to work hard and have fun. At practice, when our coach tells us a really hard set and everyones moaning, I will be the one screaming "Yay! Lets do it!" Swimming may be an individual sport, but it is in a team setting and I think teamwork is a very important aspect and can motivate everyone to work harder. I am dedicated and when I do not get a certain time that I want, I will not stop working until I get it. I don't have a certain college I want to attend, but I do want to get out of Florida and go up North. I want to pursue a major in Computer and Infomation Sciences, or anything that has to do with computers. I am 5'6'' and 175 lbs and my goal for swimming is to just do better. I pulled both of my hip flexors which made me suffer in swimming my junior year. So my goal is to not only get back to where I was, but go beyond that and swim to my full potential.
