Kylie McCarty '21 Recruiting Profile

I’m an experienced swimmer of 11 years and counting. It’s always been a goal of mine to make it to the collegiate level whether it’s off of scholarships or not.  I competed at state (TAGS) ages 9-13 and then competed in high school state my freshman year (2016-17) .  I’ve swam for Ambush out of Lufkin, Texas for the majority of my career with a few of those years spent in Houston with Magnolia Aquatic Club. I’m a fast learner and dedicated to what I do. I’ve had experience of training on my own for a couple years, so I’ve learned that self motivation will always be my best friend. I’m not afraid of constructive criticism, I feed off of it. I believe that swimming has taught me life lessons on how to maintain grades and wake up at 5 AM and manage to get a enough sleep at night.
