I aspire to swim for a college that has an outstanding team filled with inspirational athletes and amazing coaches. I desire to swim for a college that not only has a terrific swim team, but to also further my academics in pursuit of becoming a nurse. I have been swimming competitively since I was 8 years old, and I believe I have the dedication, skills, and character traits that would make a great addition to your team. I am a motivated and caring teammate, a swimmer who wants to further their skills, and a hardworking athlete and student. I am different from the other recruits because I believe I am an uplifting and inspiring teammate who is always willing to take one for the team.
