Hi,
So, I've realized recently that I want to go to USAFA, but the problem is that I learned this a few weeks ago, and I'm already starting my junior year with no school sports on my record. Since I never have planned on going to a place like the Academy, I just never did any school-related sports. I'm not out of shape or nonathletic by any means, though.
I have a couple options at the moment. I was thinking about doing either cross country, because I like running, or doing PT with Marine recruiters. It's not possible for me to do both at the same time due to conflicting times. I'm more leaning to the PT because I have friends doing it. However, I'm not really sure what would look better to the Academy, and I'd appreciate some outside input.
Also, It's kind of a shot in the dark, but being from Utah and all, in the winter I snowboard 60 plus times a year, and I enter freestyle competitions. Would this be something that I could put on my applications? Or should I just avoid it since it's not an official school sport or anything?
I already have my spring sports planned out.
Thanks for your help.
