FAST FACTS:
Why did you choose Missouri?
I chose to attend Missouri because of the great facilities it has to offer and because both the girls and guys team seemed so much like one big family, and that is exactly what I was looking for!
How has the program at Mizzou made you a better swimmer?
The coaching staff is so knowledgeable about the sport of swimming and dedicated to making every single swimmer the best they can be. They love to help you out with stroke corrections and lead you in the right direction to becoming a great swimmer! They are awesome and easy to get along with so it makes working hard and getting better so much fun!
What is your best memory with the team?
I would have to say the team Christmas party we had this past year. Everyone had to bring a white elephant gift to exchange and they were so funny! We had a lot of fun being together outside of practice all dressed up!
