Hi John, it sounds like you live an active lifestyle. I hope you read some of the previous responses in this discussion thread. As you probably read, there's no definitive answer that any of us here can give you. Genetics play a role in predicting patterns of growth. But that's not the only factor.

Have you talked with your family doctor - the doctor who has followed you since you were born?

Yes, he informed me a few months ago that I should grow until 18-19, and he said I should be at least 5'9 .5, or 5'10, since the last message I have grown 2cm and I am now 175cm and 3 months until I turn 15. I believe I am going to grow through my last growth spurt and than grow a couple inches until adulthood.
