Sarah Olsen '13 Recruiting Profile

I am 5 ft. 7 in. and 120 lb.  My best events are 100 fly, 200 fly, 500 free, 1000 Free, and 1650 free.  In 100 Fly, I recently broke a minute during a meet for the first time.  During prelims of this meet I went a 59.66 and then during finals I went a 58.82.  This time makes the cut for American Short Course Champs in February and Senior Sectionals.  This time also made me the 100 Fly District Champ for the second year in a row. In March of 2012 I dropped 100 fly down to 57.60. I love swimming.  I need at least one dose of chlorine to get through my day.  I always support my team mates and they support me.  It is my dream to swim in college.  I can't imagine not swimming during the best four years of my life.  I will go to school pretty much anywhere.  I am open to all different types of schools.  My family will need financial aid and so next year I will be applying for FAFSA.  The majors I am interested in pursuing are Economics, Advertising, Communication, Marketing, Public Relations and Journalism.  I would like to go into some type of communications career after college, maybe get a Master's in my area of study.  One of my athletic goals for the future is to be WIAA State Champ in the 100 Fly.  Next year, I plan to drop my time down to at least a 55, and then I will have a huge chance of winning.  In the meantime, I plan to workout everyday and get additional AAAA times in 200 Fly and the mile to go with my 100 Fly, and make Summer Juniors in my 100 Fly.  I hope to make a huge impact on the team I swim for in college and maybe even set some records.  I also will be Team Captain of my high school team next year, and strive to perhaps some day be captain of my college team.  Again, I am interested in all schools.  I don't have any specific requirements.  Please contact me by email ([email protected]) or my cell phone (509 619 4855) and I will tell you more about my swimming and my future goals.
