Recruiting information

Alfred University is a great institution of higher learning and that we provide an excellent environment for achieving academic and athletic success.  Alfred University is a cost effective education where your academics are solid and come at a reasonable and competitive cost; many rankings place us in the 'great buy', 'best value’, ‘value added', etc. categories.  When recruiting, I look for prospective student-athletes that find Alfred University's many positive attributes to be a good fit and will also contribute to a swimming and diving program with aspirations of competing for both conference and national level successes.  We want student-athletes that will work hard academically and, in the pool, to reach their potential. We put emphasis on having a great environment for individual growth and success, collective support, a great team culture and an overall positive experience. I look forward to sharing, in detail, the great things here at Alfred University!
