Illinois-Chicago Recieves In-State Verbal from Taira Juronis

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.

Taira Juronis of Schaumburg, Illinois has announced her verbal commitment to the University of Illinois-Chicago as a member of the class of 2024. Juronis competes year round with Academy Bullets Swim Club.

I am extremely excited to announce my verbal commitment to swim and study at the University of Illinois at Chicago! I am blessed with this opportunity and cannot wait for the next four years as a flame!! Thank you to my coaches, teammates, friends, and family for all the support!

A breaststroke specialist, this summer Juronis competed at the Illinois Swimming Senior Long Course Championships, qualifying for finals in the 100 breast (1:17.72). At the 2019 NCSA Spring Championships she competed in the 100 breast (1:04.72) and the 200 breast (2:20.00).

Top SCY Times

  • 100 breast – 1:04.16
  • 200 breast – 2:17.15
  • 200 IM – 2:05.60
  • 400 IM – 4:29.73

Juronis will have the opportunity to make an immediate impact after arriving on campus next fall. At the 2019 Horizon League Championships her best times would have qualified for the A-final of the 200 breast, 200 IM, and 400 IM, as well as the B-final of the 100 breast. She will be joining a breaststroke group led by current freshman Poleena Kovalaske and sophomore Rebecca Ballo.
