Brendan Meyer of Covington Catholic High School and the Northern Kentucky Clippers has announced his verbal commitment to swim at the University of Arizona. Meyer brings a strong résumé to Tucson, one that includes two Olympic Trial times in the 200-meter fly and 400-meter free.
Meyer is the reigning Kentucky State Champion in the 500 free and also placed third in the meet in the 100 back. As his top times indicate, he’s a versatile swimmer who can fill numerous spots for Rick DeMont‘s Wildcat squad. His strength resides mostly in his endurance, which will come in handy for the distance free races and long fly and back swims.
