All colleges want well rounded students.

I’ve heard a number of admissions officer say that they want to create a well rounded class. This class will include a number of well rounded students as well as a number of students with different talents/interests (or “spikes” as you call them).

IMO the best thing to do is to be yourself and pursue the things that interest you. When it is time to prepare your college application focus on presenting yourself and your accomplishments in a positive light.

FWIW my D was what you would call well-rounded and had no problems in the college admission process.
