THOMAS "TREY" ROGERS

Driven Water Polo Player and Scholar

My goal is to play collegiate water polo at an exceptional school where I can also pursue my academic interests.

I fell in love with water polo the first time I played - it is an amazing sport! I am an intense, well-rounded, attacker and driver who can also defend. I value input from coaches and teachers and work hard to absorb and translate what I learn into competition. I am a team player who challenges himself to reach new levels and strives to lead by example.

Despite all of the time I have committed to excelling in water polo, I have remained at the top of my class academically. I am particularly strong and really enjoy mathematics. I like to be challenged and am committed to academic excellence.
