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.
Alice Ciobanu of Stockton, California has announced her verbal commitment to San Jose State University for the fall of 2020. Ciobanu attends Lincoln High School and swims for Tiger Aquatics.
I am so excited to announce my verbal commitment to further my swimming career and education at San Jose State University!! It has always been a dream of mine to swim D1 in college and I couldn’t be more proud to call SJSU my future home. I want to thank my friends, family, and coaches for always supporting me in my swimming career, I couldn’t do it without you! Go Spartans!! 💛💙 #spartanup
Ciobanu competed at the Futures Championships-Mount Hood this summer where she finished 16th in the 1500 free in a time of 18:02.72. Last spring, at the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section, Ciobanu swam best times in both the 200 and 500 free, finishing 5th in the 200 (1:54.55) and 2nd in the 500 (5:02.16).
Top SCY Times
- 100 free – 56.05
- 200 free – 1:54.22
- 500 free – 5:01.46

After her arrival next fall, Ciobanu will provide immediate depth in the distance freestyle events. At the 2019 Mountain West Swimming and Diving Championships her best times would have put her just outside scoring in both the 200 and 500 freestyles.
