Illinois Picks Up Wisconsin HS Finalist Brigitta Neverman (2022)

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.

Green Bay YMCA’s Brigitta Neverman has verbally committed to the University of Illinois for fall 2022. She’s a junior at Preble High School in Green Bay, Wis., and she follows her older brother into the Big Ten; Kaiser Neverman is currently a freshman with the Minnesota Gophers.

I’m so extremely excited to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at the University of Illinois! I chose Illinois because of the welcoming team atmosphere, the coaches, and all the amazing resources to help me succeed in and out of the pool. I would like to thank my family, coaches, teammates, and friends for their endless support throughout this process.  I can’t wait to be a part of this amazing team! 🔸🔹

Neverman is a versatile get for Illinois, with strong times in the sprint fly, backstroke and IM. She raced during the 2019 fall high school season, taking third in the 200 IM (2:03.98) and tenth in the 100 back (56.73).

Illinois will immediately get a boost from Neverman– last season, she would’ve been the program’s top 100 butterflier and their #2 200 IMer. At the 2020 Big Ten Championships, it took a 4:21 in the 400 IM, a 2:00 in the 200 IM and a 54.4 in the 100 fly to make C-finals.

Neverman joins breaststroker Sara Jass in Illinois’s class of 2022.
