“Swimming for ten years has impacted me in so many more ways than just participating in a sport. It has brought me all of my childhood best friends, and created a bond between myself and my teammates that is stronger than I ever could have imagined. It also taught me how to deal with adversity, as time management often becomes an issue in a sport as time-consuming as this, which I think will be extremely helpful in my life as my responsibilities grow.” -senior Abigail Carrigan
