I’m a freshman and its my first year in swim. According to the coach I have a strong possibility of being next years captain. If I do happen to be captain for the next years would that look good on college apps considering thats the only sport I do and I do well in all my classes?
It’s a nice feature, but just of many that should be part of a balanced application. So, unless you are a recruited athlete, it’s a small component.
A Sophomore team captain would be remarkable, unless the team is short of upperclassmen. In and of itself, however, it means relatively nothing unless you did something to earn it.
