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.
Nicholas “Nick” Garrepy, a current high school senior from Rollinsford, New Hampshire, has committed to swim for Division I Providence College. Garrepy will graduate from Marshwood High School in spring 2020 and join the Friars’ class of 2024.
Garrepy currently swims for Seacoast Swimming Association and Marshwood High School. At the 2019 Eastern Senior Zones Championships, Garrepy placed 8th in the 1500 LCM freestyle with a time of 16:40.80. He specializes specifically in the distance freestyle events.
“I am excited to continue my academic and athletic careers at Providence College. I want to thank everyone who has helped me get to where I am today. Go Friars!”
At the 2020 Big East Swimming & Diving Championships, Garrepy would have placed 12th in the 1650 freestyle with his current best time of 16:20.91. He would have been Providence’s second fastest mile swimmer behind Justin Viotto who took 2nd place in the 1650 (15:34.07). He dropped 39.61 seconds in that race at Big East.
