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.
Nathan Holty, a senior at Beavercreek High School and a member of the Dayton Raiders in Ohio, has decided to attend college in-state and swim for Ohio State in the fall of 2020. An IM specialist, Holty will have one year of overlap with 200 IM All-American Paul Delakis but will miss out on being on the same college team as school record holder Andrew Loy.
“I am very excited to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at The Ohio State University. I would like to thank all of my coaches, friends, and family who have helped me get to where I am today. Go Bucks!”
Over the summer at the USA Swimming Futures Championships in Geneva, OH, Holty took 7th place in the 200 LCM breaststroke (2.23.98), 4th place in the 200 LCM IM (2:07.32), and won the 400 LCM IM in a record time of 4:27.95. At the 2019 Ohio High School State Championship meet, Holty took 18th place in the 200-yard freestyle (1:42.96) and 15th place in the 200 yard IM (1:54.55).
Top Times in Yards:
- 200 IM – 1:52.90
- 400 IM – 3:57.57
- 100 breast – 58.92
- 200 breast – 2:06.43
Holty will join Jack Herczeg, Jean-Pierre Khouzam, Pete Krusinski, Charlie Clark, Mario McDonald, Ian Van Gorp, Justin Fleagle, and #19 Owen Conley as members of the Buckeyes’ class of 2024.
