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.
Kara Boemio, a senior at Clear Springs High School in Texas, has verbally committed to swim for Oklahoma Christian University.
“I’m am excited and thankful to announce that I have decided to verbally commit to further my academic and swim career at Oklahoma Christian University. I chose OC because of the outstanding nursing program, coaches, and team dynamics. I would like to thank God, my family, friends/teammates, my coaches, and American College Connection for helping me come to this decision. I can’t wait to become an Eagle! #talonsup”
Boemio also swims for the Sharks Swim Club. At the 2021 Gulf Southern Senior Champs Invite, she placed in the top 20 in the 100 fly. She also swam at the 2021 Southern Zone Senior Championships, where she placed thirteenth in the 200-meter fly, and eighteenth in the 800-meter free.
Boemio is a USA Swimming Futures qualifier in the 100 fly. Her best short-course yards times are:
- 50 free: 25.41
- 100 free: 55.34
- 200 free: 1:59.34
- 100 fly: 57.30
- 200 fly: 2:06.05
Oklahoma Christian University is a Division II school and a member of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference. At the 2021 conference championships, the Oklahoma Christian women placed sixth out of eight teams.
If Boemio swam at that meet with her best times, she would’ve won the 200 fly, placed fifth in the 100 fly, and made the B final in the 200 free. She also would’ve been the fastest Oklahoma Christian woman swimmer last season in the 100 fly and 200 fly.
Boemio is poised to become the team’s best butterflier when she joins in the fall. She joins Riki Maldonado for the fall of 2022.
