Backstroker Caitlin Romprey Commits to Arkansas-Little Rock (2021)

Fitter and Faster Swim Camps is the proud sponsor of SwimSwam’s College Recruiting Channel and all commitment news. For many, swimming in college is a lifelong dream that is pursued with dedication and determination. Fitter and Faster is proud to honor these athletes and those who supported them on their journey.

Caitlin Romprey of the Southern Utah Swimming Association has committed to Arkansas-Little Rock for this coming fall. A senior at Desert Hills High School, she’ll join the Trojans’ class of 2025.

“I decided to choose the University of Arkansas at Little Rock because I felt a family community there. The coaches were invested during my recruiting process and got to know me more than just as a swimmer. I have gotten to know some of the other Little Rock swimmers, and they are so friendly, and I felt like I already had a connection with them! I am so excited to be a part of the family and contribute to the future culture of Little Rock, I am SO excited to see these next 4 years! GO LITTLE ROCK TROJANS!! :)”

TOP TIMES (SCY)

  • 100 back – 56.48
  • 200 back – 2:02.56
  • 50 free – 24.81

Romprey is primarily a backstroker, with her lifetime best in the 200 back coming from a Utah club meet just a few days ago. She won the 2020 Utah HS 4A state titles in the 200 free and 100 back, and she defended those titles at the 2021 meet earlier this year.

Last season, and this season, Romprey would’ve been the fastest backstroker (at both distances) on the roster. She should immediately contribute to the team, with times that would’ve made the 200 back A-final and 100 back B-final at the 2020 Missouri Valley Conference Championships.

Romprey joins Jaelle Carlson, Devin Trammell, Gillian Boggs, Lara Alsader, Lauren Pieniazkiewicz and Olivia Henderson in Arkansas-Little Rock’s incoming class.

I had the pleasure of running Caitlin through a practice this summer and saw quite quickly that she is raw talent and is going to grow exponentially with the great coaching staff and teammates at UALR. Conference next year is going to be so much fun.
