Adeline Bakken '21 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals and aspirations begin with enjoying my time in a college that not only is a good fit for me, but challenges me to succeed academically and in my athletics. I would love to play women's tennis in college because I love the game and I love to compete by myself while still being part of a team.

Academics are extremely important to me as well. I know that excelling in ones studies leads to many opportunities after college. My goal is to graduate college with a Bachelor's degree in Health or Behavioral Science, specifically Psychology or Anesthesiology and go to medical school.

I believe what makes me different in character from others is that, especially when it comes to tennis, I am willing to go the distance to become a better player for myself. You could even say I have the "eye of the tiger".  I push myself and motivate myself to be the best I can be when the goal is something I truly want; and I do what it takes to get there.
