Fey Matamoros of Austin, Texas has committed to swim for the University of Arkansas at Little Rock beginning with the 2017-18 season. “I am beyond excited to announce my commitment and to become part of theTrojan Family! The second I touched down in Little Rock and arrived on Campus I knew this is where I belonged. I am excited to see what the next 4 year have to offer and cannot wait to continue my swimming career with Coach Burgess and the team! I want to say thank you to my parents for their constant support and love over the years. Go Trojans!”
Matamoros swims for Longhorn Aquatics and specializes in freestyle. While she tends more toward the longer distances, she is proficient across the range. Matamoros had an outstanding 2015-16 swim season, and earned best times in both core events and off events, alike. In the last short course season she updated her times in the 200/500/1650 free, 100/200 back, 100/200 breast, 100 fly, and 200/400 IM. Last summer she improved in LCM 50/100/200/400/800 free, 200 breast, and 200 fly. Already this season she has lowered her best SCY times in the 100 free, 1000 free, and 200 fly.
