Winter Juniors Qualifier Andrea Zeebe Commits to Tulane for Fall 2022

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.

Andrea Zeebe from Honolulu, Hawaii announced her commitment in May to swim and study at Tulane University beginning in the 2022-2023 school year.

I am so happy to announce my verbal commitment to swim and study at Tulane University! A huge thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way, roll wave!! 💚💙”

Zeebe swims for Kamehameha Swim Club out of Kamehameha, Hawaii. In March 2021, she earned multiple best times at the ISCA International Senior Meet including the short course 100 (52.82) and 500 (5:06.01) freestyles. She also earned best times in the long course 100 freestyle (59.25), 100 backstroke (1:04.53), 200 butterfly (2:21.84), and 200 (2:21.34) and 400 (5:07.33) IMs. Her 100 backstroke and 200 IM long course were also Winter Juniors cuts. 

This summer, she has continued her time drops and achieved best times in June in the short course 50 (23.96) and 200 (1:53.35) freestyles. In July, she earned best long course times in the 200 freestyle (2:06.37) and 200 backstroke (2:21.51). 

Zeebe will begin her senior year this fall at Punahou High School in Honolulu, HI. Her best short course times are:

  • 50 freestyle: 23.96
  • 100 freestyle: 52.82
  • 200 freestyle: 1:53.35
  • 100 backstroke: 55.85
  • 200 backstroke: 2:01.42
  • 200 IM: 2:04.44

Tulane University is a private university located in New Orleans, Louisiana. The school is a member of the American Athletic Conference (AAC). At the 2021 AAC Championships, Tulane finished fourth out of four teams. 

Based on her best times, Zeebe has the potential to score in the A final of the 100 and 200 backstroke as well as the B final of the 200 IM and 50 freestyle. She also has the potential to be on the 200 freestyle relay. Her best time in the 50 freestyle is 0.26 faster than the leadoff leg was in the 200 freestyle relay. 

Zeebe will arrive on campus next fall as a member of the class of 2026 along with Olcaytu Hatipoglu, Sydney Mullin, Elena Gringras, and Grace Dale
