Aquatic Team Of Mecklenburg’s Ham Williams-Tracy has committed to swim at Swarthmore College beginning in the fall of 2021.
“I am so excited to announce my commitment to swim at Swarthmore College next fall! I chose Swarthmore to continue my studies as it provided the best combination of world class academics with a competitive athletic environment. I cannot be more thankful for the opportunity that Coach Karin and Coach Sam have provided for me. Go Garnet!!”
A senior at Myers Park High School in Charlotte, North Carolina, Williams-Tracy swam the 100 fly (55.06) and 200 IM (1:59.77) at the 2020 North Carolina 4A State Swimming and Diving Championships, placing 21st and 18th, respectively, in prelims. Two weeks later at the North Carolina Swimming LSC Senior Short Course Championships, he notched PBs in both events with 52.11 and 1:57.03. He also swam lifetime bests in the 50 free (22.08) and 500 free (4:42.96). In December, Williams-Tracy competed at the 18&U Winter Championships and added PBs in the 200 back (1:55.42), 200 fly (1:57.28), and 400 IM (4:15:10).
