I don't know. I've known several men my age and up who went to the Naval Academy ... their key advantages were connections or sports. This is not to say that they didn't turn out to be decent officers.
And I have friends whose son is at the Air Force Academy; he was recruited for swimming.
Working on your Congressman's political campaign might help you get his attention :-).
Don't get me wrong, I am an athlete- I'm in excellent physical shape, I just enjoy working out alone. School sports require much time and accomplish little. Unless you swim- then you get your money's worth. I've decided I'd rather teach piano lessons for good cash (very good cash) than spend 3 hours a day at track practice doing what I can do in half the time.
What does the AF need with swimmers? I am a lifeguard, trained and certified, but that seems like a Navy/Marines deal.
Concerning political campaigns, I do live in the fine (well, sorta) state of New York... and I really want to uproot Hillary...
