Alexa Bryant '16 Recruiting Profile

Ever since I was very young, I have loved everything about my sport. Training, competing, and creating positive connections with other athletes is what makes my life complete. Over the last ten years I feel that I have made great improvements in my swimming. I am most competitive as a sprint freestyler, 50, 100 and 200 M),  though I feel I have made good progress in the past few years in my 50 and 100M breaststroke. Anchoring relays has also been one of my specialities over the years and I believe that I have been a very valuable member of my teams, bringing many of them to podium positions.

This season my goal is to qualify again for Canadian Age Group Championships and improve on my performance at that meet over two years ago.

I am very excited to be starting my college journey and am looking forward to the amazing athletic experience that competing in the NCAA would provide. I want to compete at the collegiate level to challenge myself. I value both athletics and academics so I would like to attend a school that also reflects these same values. 

I work very hard in all aspects of my life, even when things get complicated, I am tired or  am in a discouraging situation. I use the challenges as motivation to work harder and continue to improve and succeed.

After college my goal is to attend medical school and pursue a career in obstetrics and gynaecology, with a specialty in fertility. I am very ambitious and always hold myself to the highest standards and want to attend a school that will support and encourage me in this.

I am very excited to see all of the opportunities that are available to me and to start diving into the college world.
