Futures Qualifier Rylee Trojan Changes Verbal to Nebraska-Omaha (2021)

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.

After initially sending a verbal commitment to Southern Illinois, Rylee Trojan of Greater Omaha Aquatics has elected to stay closer to home. She’s re-committed to Nebraska-Omaha for fall 2021.

After much consideration, I have made the decision to stay closer to home and withdraw my previous verbal commitment from Southern Illinois University. With that being said, I am extremely excited to announce that I have decided to continue my academic and swimming career at the University of Nebraska Omaha! I would like to thank the Southern Illinois staff for offering me the opportunity to swim at their program. I would also like to thank Coach Todd and Coach Jess for allowing me a spot on their team, I could not be more excited and grateful to swim for them! Go Mavs🤘❤️🖤

Trojan is a senior at Omaha’s Marian High School. At the Nebraska HS State Championships, Trojan was an A-finalist in the 200 free and 500 free, while she’s gone most of her lifetime bests in late 2020.

Since she committed, Trojan raced at the 18&U Winter Championships, where she dropped her 100 fly down from 57.15 to 56.92, while she’s taken her 200 IM from 2:13.46 down to 2:09.78 since the pandemic hit. Trojan is also a Futures qualifier in the 100 fly in long course (1:06.72).

Last season, Trojan would’ve been Nebraska-Omaha’s best 100 butterflier, and among their best backstrokers. Trojan joins Annika Harthoorn, Hailey Matthews, Heidi Lenarz, Holly Bernardin, Lilly Stafford, Lydia Johnston, Olivia Wassink, Payton Easley, Payton Krug, and Sadie Khalil in the Mav incoming class.
