Personal: From Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada … Born on October 19, 2002 … Daughter of Erin and Scott Banton … Majoring in Dietetics … chose Marshall "because of its strong emphasis on community and success. Marshall's athletic and academic programs provide student-athletes with the foundation they need to thrive"...her biggest role model is her mom because, "she is such a selfless and caring person, and I aspire to be as kind as she is"...non-sport hobbies include, "surrounding myself in nature, spending time with friends and family and creating lasting memories"...after Paige is done competing at the collegiate level she hopes to continue training and competing at Master level swimming.
