Heidi Rhodenbaugh '22 Recruiting Profile

I have been swimming competitively since I was 7 years old. Swimming runs in my family. My sister swims in college, my dad is one of my swim coaches and I have 24 cousins who all swam at some point in their lives and my aunt is a previous Olympian.  I currently swim for my high school and my club team. I swim on the highest group level for my club team and I am one of the leaders on my team. I currently am in the Emerging Leaders Academy for the YMCA. It is a program designed to further our leadership roles on our teams and community. I am 1 of 25 in the nation that was chosen for this academy.  I was also just inducted into the National Honor Society. 

I would be a great fit in many swim programs for a few reasons; I love the sport, I try my hardest and I balance my grades with my practices. My main strokes are 200 IM, 100 Breast, and 200 Breast. 

I am enjoying the process of finding the right place for me to continue my swimming career. I can't imagine not swimming in college!
