Why I chose Swimming

Why swimming? We know student-athletes love their sport and are talented, but we often don't know why. We have asked that question, and Katie Ellett, Tara Enneking and Noah Wilkins tell us why they chose their sport.

Why Swimming

Katie Ellett – Jr. – Rockville, Md.
I started swimming competitively when I was five years old at a local neighborhood pool on the swim team that my grandmother started. Being a part of the community, developing friends I still consider family and competing in a fun, team-oriented environment are what helped develop my passion for swimming.
