Kelsey Suggs Season 2011

Why I Chose Stanford: "Stanford University opens up countless doors for its students to ensure successful futures. In addition to the academic prestige that is synonymous with Stanford, the athletic programs at the university are unparalleled. These aspects combined with the beautiful campus make it nearly impossible to turn down the chance to live the Stanford Experience, and I am privileged to be among the elite few who were presented with the opportunity to develop and learn with the best and brightest, both in and out of the pool."
