Yesterday, I competed in the final meet of my swimming career. After battling a pretty serious sickness this past month, this meet mentally and physically destroyed me. But in a lot of ways, it reminded me what my swimming career has always been about.

You don’t always win. Things don’t always line up. But the only thing guaranteed if you quit is failure.

Swimming was never the easy path. It wasn’t the sport with the most recognition or spotlight. I chose it because I loved it. I’ll always be proud that I got to live out a childhood dream.

None of it would have been possible without incredible people around me. To my family, coaches, teammates, friends, and everyone who played a role in this journey, thank you. I’m more grateful than I can put into words.

Do the things you love. They’ll bring the right people into your life and open doors you didn’t even know existed.

To the sport that gave me everything, yet taught me that absolutely nothing comes easy, thank you. taken in Ball State University by @jacobsiewers

I am excited to announce that I will be continuing my academic and swimming careers at Ball State University. I could not be more thankful for this opportunity. I would like to thank everyone who has been involved in this journey. Division 1 swimming would not be remotely possible without the constant help of the many many people who have always been so willing to do whatever it was I needed. I am beyond excited for what these next four years hold. Go Cardinals! #committed taken in Ball State University by @jacobsiewers
