Why Minnesota? I chose Minnesota because of the way I felt welcomed by the coaching staff from the start, and since I received an immense amount of support and help. The incredible athletic resources available here are something that will really contribute to my further growth as a swimmer. However, one of the most important factors that made me decide to come here was the team's atmosphere.
