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.
Charlotte, North Carolina native Nick Piscitelli has announced his verbal commitment to the University of Tampa and will head to the Sunshine State in the fall of 2021.
“I am extremely excited to announce my verbal commitment to swim and study at the University of Tampa. Thank you to my family and friends who have supported me along the way!”
The Marvin Ridge High School senior wrapped up his prep career at the 2021 North Carolina 3A State Swimming and Diving Championships where he placed 5th in the 200 IM (1:53.79) and 5th in the 100 breast (57.76). He also anchored the runner-up 200 free relay (20.89) and led off the second-place 400 free relay (46.74).
A month later he joined his club team SwimMAC Carolina at Cary Sectionals and improved his lifetime bests in the SCY 100/200 free, 100 breast, 100 fly, and 200 IM. He also picked up a new PB in the LCM 100 free (53.10) in time trials.
Best SCY times:
- 200 free – 1:39.39
- 100 free – 46.14
- 50 free – 21.18
- 200 IM – 1:51.37
- 400 IM – 4:08.83
- 100 fly – 49.73
- 100 breast – 57.57
- 200 breast – 2:07.85
Piscitelli will join Calvin Sandefer and Connor Kazmi in Tampa’s class of 2025. He would have been one of the top freestylers on the Spartans’ squad this past season, with the second-fastest 200 time and a top-10 time in the 100 free. He also would have ranked in the top-5 of the 100 breast and 200 breast.
