Mezi Koke '22 Recruiting Profile

The 7-year-old me, that jumped into the water for her first-ever practice, would not believe how much this sport has changed and impacted my life, if I were to tell her today. I am an incredibly hard worker, extremely coachable, competitive, and driven. I push myself to be a better athlete, teammate as well as a person every single day. I am a leader with a positive attitude and enthusiasm. I am not afraid to be me but I am always looking for ways to better myself in and out of the pool. 

I carry that hard work in the classroom with me. With a 3.9 GPA, I am not afraid to ask questions, do all of my assignments thoroughly, and am part of the National Honors Society doing volunteer work.  I also have an ambition for CrossFit and weightlifting that I do 3 times a week on top of swimming and school while focusing on healthy eating habits. 

This sport has made me more confident, driven, and an overall better person. I have made amazing memories because of swimming and I would love to make many more.
