“My freshman year, my team placed 2nd at 4A High School States. Standing on the podium with my teammates was the most rewarding moment I’ve had in my swimming career. Swimming is normally an individual sport, but in that moment the hard work we put in as swimmers was something greater than our own individual benefit.”
