Get to Know Lezli ...
At what age did you start swimming and how did you get into the sport?
- I started at 11 because my parents decided to put me in it.
- I do lots of stretching, have a good warm up in the pool and listen to some fun hype music.
- I used to have an arctic fox as a pet.
- Volleyball. I used to play for a couple years and loved it but quit to take swim more seriously.
- Don’t get discouraged by the times on the clock, they’ll come with consistency.
- Jesus Christ.
- It was out of state and a Power Five school that offers a lot of resources for its student-athletes.
