“I am so excited to announce my verbal commitment to swim for North Carolina State University. This is a dream come true and I want to thank all my supporters, family, friends, teachers, and coaches for helping me get to this point. NC State has the perfect combination of academics and swimming that would be impossible to turn down. The coaching staff and team are so welcoming and passionate, and I cannot wait to be a member of the Wolfpack. Go Pack!”
