Swimmer highlight: Emily Mance

Emily isn't only one of the contributors of this blog. While getting to know her, she is a passionate swimmer, friend, student and accomplishes anything she puts her mind to.

After attending FIT for over a year now, Emily didn't just inform that FIT had a swim she taught me the minute details of being a member of the swim-team. From the meal preps before a meet to the unbreakable bond she has with her fellow teammates.

While being a full time student Emily managed to rank in top spots in FIT's swim-team history.

Emily is ranked in the top-ten all-time at FIT for her split 100 in 2014.

Her split at the 200 missed the school record by only a second and a half and her split at the 100 also places her in the top-10 all-time at FIT.

She became the first swimmer at FIT to earn a spot in the top-8 at Nationals, where she finished 8th.

Emily is also considered the highest standing FIT swimmer in 1650 free category.

Her swimming career at FIT has came to an end for now because of the two year restriction the school has.

"I will continue to swim my whole life even if it's not competitively," said Emily Mance.

During her break of competitive swimming Emily plans to study abroad in London for a semester and swim in waters she never swam in before.
