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.
Calvin Groenewold, a current high school senior from Lombard, Illinois, has committed to swim for Division I Bryant University. Groenewold will graduate from Timothy Christian High School in spring 2020 and join the Bulldogs’ class of 2024.
Groenewold is a current swimmer for FMC Aquatic. Earlier this year at the Illinois Swimming Senior Championships, Groenewold placed 6th in the 200 breaststroke. He also placed 3rd in the 100 breaststroke (58.52) and 5th in the 200 IM (1:57.64) at the 2020 IHSA Boys Sectional Championships.
“I am proud to announce my commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at Bryant University! I would like to thank God, my family, coaches and friends for helping me along the way. I am extremely grateful and excited for this opportunity to swim at Bryant. Go Bulldogs!”
At the 2020 MAAC Swimming and Diving Championships with the Bulldogs, Groenewold would have placed 16th in both the 100 breaststroke (57.88) and 200 breaststroke (2:07.07). Groenewold’s future teammate Fu Kang Wong placed 1st in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke with the times of 53.40 and 1:57.52.
