Fitter and Faster Swim Clinics 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.

Evelyn Bruner from San Antonio, Texas has announced her verbal commitment to Texas A&M University’s class of 2024. She’ll join Alaya Smith and Jade Hallum in College Station in the fall of 2020.

“Howdy! I am so stoked to announce my verbal commitment to Texas A&M University to continue my swimming career and for the opportunity to join the Aggie Family. The awesome team culture, top of the line coaching and academics confirmed that A&M is the place for me. Can’t wait to be the loudest, the proudest member of the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Class of 2024! A huge thank you to everyone who coached and encouraged me, bringing me to this point in my career, especially Coach Bob Renfrew III and my parents and siblings. Thanks & Gig ‘Em! 👍🏻”

Bruner excels in freestyle and butterfly. A NISCA All-American, she is a junior at Byron P. Steele II High School and has won the 100 free, 200 free, and 500 free at Texas UIL 6A Region 7 Championships during her prep career thus far.
