WHY I CHOSE CAL
"I choose Cal because I knew that this was the only place that could take me where I wanted to go in and out of the pool. Aside from that, I have never been surrounded by such a welcoming, supportive, and motivated group of teammates, coaches, and advisers in my life. I can honestly say it's the best of both worlds!"
