In this episode of Life in Lane 4, I sit down with Jamie Brinsfield, an MIT commit, about what it takes to stand out in both recruiting and academics. Jamie breaks down the recruiting process, including how to communicate with coaches and position yourself as a serious prospect. He also shares what goes into building a competitive college application, from academics to extracurriculars, and how to stay disciplined throughout high school. The conversation also covers practical strategies for staying on top of schoolwork, both in high school and in college. This episode is a clear guide for student-athletes aiming to compete at a high level in and out of the pool.
