In just one season as a Wolverine White was the 2015 Big Ten Co-Freshman of the Year and earned NCAA Honorable Mention All-America honors in the 200 butterfly. According to the rankings on collegeswimming.com White was the 11th-ranked recruit in the class of 2014, and at the time was the top-ranked recruit to commit.

White graduated from Iroquois Ridge High School, and competed club swimming for Oakville Aquatic Club, which is the same team that fellow Michigan swimmer, Bryce Kwiecien-Delaney, also trains with.
