In 2000, Scott qualified for the Olympic Trials in Montreal at the age of 15 and looked to gain some valuable experience. He went on to finish last in the 100m breaststroke.
Scott is aiming for a medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing but his focus right now is swimming fast one race at a time.
Four years later in Toronto, Scott not only won his first national title at the Olympic Trials but he beat the tough qualifying standard to earn his first trip to the Olympic Games. He had finished ahead of Canadian record holder Morgan Knabe and broke the British Columbia provincial record in the process.
He is currently studying Arts at the University of British Columbia where he swims for the Dolphins under the guidance of the Olympian coach Tom Johnson.
He attended Ancaster High School where he also played water polo and swam for the Brantford Aquatic Club. |
