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.
Sam Dellasega, a high school state qualifier from North Carolina, has verbally committed to St. Bonaventure University for the class of 2026.
“I am super excited to announce my verbal commitment to St. Bonaventure to continue my athletic and academic career. I could not have done this without my parents, coaches and all of my teammates and friends. I cannot wait to be a part of the team. GO BONNIES!”
Dellasega attends Millbrook High School, which is a member of the North Carolina 4A class. This year, he qualified for the State meet in the boys 500 freestyle. At the meet, he set a new personal best time of 4:41.24 to finish 15th overall.
In March, Dellasega swam at the Speedo Sectionals in Cary for his club team New Wave, where he finished 6th in the 1650 (16:14.41), qualified for finals in the 500 free (4:43.46 – 12th), and finished 17th in the 1000 free (10:01.17).
Dellasega’s Best Times (SCY)
- 200 free- 1:47.39
- 500 free- 4:41.24
- 1650 free- 16:14.41
St. Bonaventure is a member of the Atlantic 10 Conference, where they were 2nd last year to George Washington University.
Dellasega will help add depth to the St. Bonaventure roster in the distance freestyle events, though he is still a bit off scoring position. Last season, he would have been 11th in the 200 freestyle, 8th in the 500 freestyle, and 5th in the 1650 freestyle on the team.
He will join a large recruiting class of Ben Witmer, Corey Beard, Asher Cooper, Duncan McClaren, and Dillon Spooner in the Bonnies class of 2030.
