Emma Claps '20 Recruiting Profile

I aspire to keep improving on my times throughout my high school career, and after in college.  I also would like to meet new people and help my team improve.  What makes me different is that I always like to bring positive energy to the teams I participate in, as having positive energy doesn't only make me enjoy the sport more but it helps the whole team enjoy the workout and become closer.  When it comes to ranking on a team, I always try my best to take-off time in my events, but I also try to work on a wide variety of events.  As on my high school team, my coach has me in almost every event multiple times per season, as I try to I score points for my team in many different events. I have an extremely strong work ethic as when I started swim I was not naturally talented, but loved the sport and wanted to continue working harder and getting better.  I also have a strong work ethic in school, putting in many long hours studying as I balance many extra curricular activities such as music, track, weight lifting, and pole vaulting, on top of school work.
