AMBER McDermott, a six-star recruit from the class of 2011 is the first subject in this summer&#39;s <i>Swimming World<\/i> College Recruit Rankings Profiles series. McDermott lives in Mill Creek, Wash., and swims for the Cascade Swim Team. <\/p>\n<p>McDermott maintains her <a href=http:\/\/www.takeyourmarks.com\/swm661?id=6790 target=_blank>profile<\/a> in the <i>Swimming World<\/i> College Recruit Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>She owns short course yards times of 4:38.89 in the 500 free and 4:09.33 in the 400 IM, which would have put her in the A final last year for both events. She also owns long course senior national cuts in the 100 (57.74) and 1500 (16:22.80) free, the 200 back (2:13.66) and the 200 fly (2:18.04).<\/p>\n<p><b>What is your favorite set?<\/b><br \/>\nI think my favorite set is 3&#215;1500. Although it&#39;s long and boring to some people, I can get comfortable at a certain pace and it&#39;s just easy for me to do.<\/p>\n<p><b>Have you committed to a college? If so, where? If not, where will you be taking your official visits?<\/b><br \/>\nI haven&#39;t committed yet, and I&#39;m not sure where I&#39;m going to take my visits yet, I am trying to keep my options open. And I also probably won&#39;t decide where I&#39;m taking my visits until closer to the next school year. I don&#39;t know which specific schools yet, but I&#39;m looking at the top 10 swim programs, and I&#39;m a little biased about schools with outdoor pools!<\/p>\n<p><b>What is your favorite swimming-related memory?<\/b><br \/>\nI think my favorite memory, a fairly recent one, was when I won the 800 free last year at U.S. Open. It was just such a big surprise to me and I was really happy that my hard work finally paid off.<\/p>\n<p><b>Who do you look up to in the world of swimming?<\/b><br \/>\nI don&#39;t think there is one person that really sticks out to me, but I really look up to all the Olympians because not only are they extremely talented, but I&#39;ve had the pleasure of getting to know a lot of them, and they are so down to earth and modest I enjoyed the time I spent around them.<\/p>\n<p><b>What do you consider to be your breakthrough moment in swimming?<\/b><br \/>\nLike I said earlier, when I won the 800 free at US Open I was really surprised but I think that was really my breakthrough moment. That swim enabled me to make the National Team for the first time, and start seriously thinking about a swimming career.<\/p>\n<p><b>What is your daily schedule with school and practice and such?<\/b><br \/>\nI wake up every weekday at 4:15 for an hour and a half morning practice. Since I recently started homeschooling, I take a nap when I get home from practice, and then I start my schoolwork. At around 2 o&#39;clock my sister comes home from school and we hang out until we have to leave for practice at 3:15, which is a 2 and a half hour practice. When I get home after swimming I eat dinner, maybe do some schoolwork and then go to bed.<\/p>\n<p><b>What are your long-term goals?<\/b><br \/>\nMy long-term goal is to make the 2012 Olympic team, and I think with hard work and choosing the right college, that goal can become a reality.<\/p>\n<p><b>What are your short-term goals?<\/b><br \/>\nMy short-term goal for this summer is to make the Pan Pacs team because I have yet to be on an official National Team meet, and it would be a great experience to swim with the big name swimmers from all around the world. <\/p>\n<p><b>What is something that people wouldn&#39;t know about you?<\/b><br \/>\nIt&#39;s kind of ironic, but when I was 3, and lived in New Jersey I had major separation anxiety so I would scream whenever my mom would leave at swim lessons. It ended up that I got so out of hand that I got kicked out of swim lessons and the manager of the pool kindly told my parents not to bring me back to that pool!<\/p>\n<p><b>What type of input do you have in your training (versus your coach)? <\/b><br \/>\nEvery other week or so my coach and I sit down and talk about my training, and I mostly just listen and do what he has to say, but if I want to change something in my training he is pretty open to new ideas.<\/p>\n<p><b>What are you interested in studying in college?<\/b><br \/>\nI&#39;m a really social person and I enjoy working with other people, so I feel like Communications is something I&#39;d be interested in. When I&#39;m older I&#39;d like to work somewhere in that field so studying Communications in college would probably be the best choice for me.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Recruits:<\/b> To make sure we have the most updated information on your recruiting, and to earn the highest star ranking you deserve, please either create a new profile, or request to take over your admin-created account in the Swimming World College Recruit Rankings powered by Take Your Marks.
