Lilia Johnston-Herrera '23 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to succeed in both sports and academics. I am very hard working, and persevere through any obstacle that may arise. I‘m doing the  full IB program, and I hope to play water polo in college. What makes me different from other recruits is that growing up in a military house hold, where both my mother and father are Marines, I understand the importance of working together as a team and the importance to strive to always better myself. I also understand that it is vital to be able to adapt to any situation, which is something that I can do. I started water polo my freshman year, and before my season I trained with the boys water polo team for their season, meaning I took matters into my own hands to learn and get a better understanding of the game before my season started.  Also,  I joined the swim team to improve my swim form and endurance to excel in waterpolo. Overall, I would make a good candidate for your team because I am persistent, disciplined, able to adapt to situations, and a hard worker.
