Ashlyn Morr '24 Recruiting Profile

My name is Ashlyn Morr and I am a Junior at New Albany High school, and I swim on New Albany Aquatics Club Swimming Team year round.  Swimming has been a huge part of my life since I was six. I started competitively swimming when I was six and have loved it ever since. I want to continue swimming in college and continue to excel in academics.  Although Freshman year was a challenging year due to COVID and limited practice availability, I felt as though it was one of my most rewarding years.   As a team, we were able to win the first-ever Ohio High School State Championship for New Albany High School in Swim and Dive, and I was able to contribute by making the podium in both of my individual events as well as both of my relay events including 1st place in our 400 free relay.

In my athletic history, I participated in Lacrosse for 7 years, soccer for 4 years, and enjoy any kind of water sport.  I am also a certified lifeguard.  I have always received feedback from my coaches on being extremely "coachable," as well as an extremely hard worker.  I have been fortunate to have been a part of the former Ohio State Swim Club from 2018-2020, and swim alongside multiple Olympic trial qualifiers on my current team.  During my off-season, which is only a few weeks a year, I work with a private trainer to improve my strength.

From an academic perspective, I maintain 4.1+ GPA including extremely advanced mathematics courses such as AP Calculus as a sophomore.  I am looking for a school which encourages a balance for student athletes.    I look forward to meeting and talking with coaches about future openings on their roster.
