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.
Lucy Monroe, a current high school senior from Lebanon, Ohio, has committed to swim for Division III Carnegie Mellon University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Monroe will graduate from Lebanon High School in spring 2020 and join Tartan’s class of 2024.
Monroe currently swims for Countryside Ralph Stole YMCA. In 2019, Monroe placed 4th in the 500 freestyle (5:25.05) at the Southwest District Championships—Mason. She is also a Sectional qualifier.
“I am super excited to announce my decision to continue my academic and athletic pursuits at Carnegie Mellon! I am so grateful for this opportunity and my family, coaches, and friends who have supported me along the way. I’m hyped for this fall! Go Tartans!”
